    A "spy hunting" report is always exciting. Four reporters worked on the piece which brought forward... nothing. But a small part said a lot about the #surveillance we live in.

    "We later obtained a second number which we were told was also for Luka - this time registered in Syria and linked to social media and messaging apps which he appeared to be still using.

    Over a period of a day, the BBC was able to locate him in two ​suburban areas on the outskirts of the Russian capital, #Moscow.

    The locations seemed far removed from the luxurious lifestyle #Assad is reported to be leading in exile in #Russia, and to the life Luka himself once led in #Syria."

    Just some questions: Which tools the reporters used to track "over a period of a day" Husam Luka?
    These tools are private, in the service of #BBC or state agents'?
    Is there any journalist who can follow the story?
