State Department security chief Gentile said devices likely placed before occupancy 11 years ago. Since 1949, more than 130 listening devices have been found in Moscow and other Eastern capitals. Initial containment measures aimed to limit information loss from such eavesdropping. Officers conducted a thorough check of the embassy’s eighth to tenth floors where Kohler and aides work. The Moscow embassy has undergone repeated inspections over 11 years, with a recent decision to intensify the search.
