A Nicaraguan Army base located on Mokoron Hill south of Managua has emerged as a significant center for Russian espionage. The base, known as Unit 502, has been under the control of Russian officials who operate and access sophisticated surveillance equipment, leaving Nicaraguan officers with limited roles confined to security duties.
The Army's Directorate of Military Intelligence and Counterintelligence (DICIM) has been using the base for several years to process information from a radio direction-finding system. local outlet El Confidencial reported.
