Russian state media says Moscow spirited a U.S. citizen working for it out of Ukraine

MOSCOW (Reuters) - Russian state media said on Monday that Moscow's forces fighting in Ukraine had successfully extracted a U.S. citizen from eastern Ukraine who had secretly helped them target Ukraine for at least two years.

State media published a picture of the purported American in civilian clothing embracing a group of what looked like Russian special forces wearing combat uniforms. His face was blurred out in the photograph.
