US, Russian flights land in Vienna for spy swap

None

US and Russian flights believed to be carrying candidates for a 14-person exchange have landed in Vienna as part of the largest spy swap since the Cold War.

 

A maroon-and-white Boeing 767-200 charter carrying 10 deported Russian agents landed Friday morning after flying overnight from New York's La Guardia airport. Within minutes, it came to a halt behind a Russian Emergencies Ministry plane thought to be carrying the four Russians to be exchanged. (AP)
