An incident involving foreign surveillance of U.S. Special Forces personnel has raised significant security concerns. In Carthage, North Carolina, an elite Special Forces Army Colonel shot a trespasser who was allegedly surveilling his home outside Fort Liberty. The trespasser, along with another individual, were identified as illegal immigrants from Chechnya, a Russian republic. Reports indicate these individuals were using a telephoto lens to monitor the residence. This event highlights increasing foreign surveillance activities targeting Special Forces operators and their families, yet the FBI has not opened a counterintelligence investigation.
