BBC Exposes Two Russian Spies in Vienna
A BBC investigation uncovered the identities of Cvetelina Gencheva and Tsvetanka Doncheva, two Bulgarian women involved in a sophisticated Russian spy network operating from the UK. Gencheva, an airline employee, leveraged her access to private flight data to aid surveillance, while Doncheva conducted surveillance in Vienna, targeting journalists and officials. Both women, when contacted by the BBC, denied involvement or refused to comment, despite substantial evidence linking them to the network and its convicted members. While six other Bulgarians await sentencing in London for their roles, neither Gencheva nor Doncheva currently face charges.
