Dutch withdraw spy from Iran because of 'impending US attack'
The Dutch intelligence service has pulled an agent out of an "ultra-secret operation" spying on Iran's military industry because spymasters in Netherlands believe a United States air attack was imminent....

A country usually has to have pretty good reason to withdraw its agents from another country doesn't it?

A country usually has a better reason to withdrawal them in secret so as not to compromise the fact they were there in the first place.
I guess the Dutch think spying is like Dutch peacekeeping; you only have to play at it.
