The US embassy employee accused of spying in Moscow flew out of Russia , five days after he was ordered to leave the country, according to reports.
The Kremlin-loyal NTV station broadcast footage showing Ryan Fogle going through passport control and security at Sheremetyevo international airport.
He also was pictured in the company of embassy staff as he wheeled a suitcase into the Moscow airport, which is used by the airline Delta for its direct flights to New York.
Little is known publicly about Fogle's duties and activities in Russia. The US state department confirmed he worked as an embassy employee but would give no details about his job. The CIA has made no comment.
Russian security services announced this week that Fogle, a 29-year-old third secretary in the US embassy, had been caught trying to recruit a Russian counter-terrorism officer.
