Summary
Germany investigates two suspected sabotage attacks on power substations—one in Brandenburg with explosives, another in Bergheim with short-circuited lines—raising fears of foreign involvement or left-wing extremism, especially amid heightened tensions over Moscow-backed plots. The incidents coincide with Germany formally blaming Russia for a drone attack on Leipzig airport, prompting a diplomatic protest and the identification of two suspects linked to the drone incident, both with Russian ties. Authorities are now probing whether the substation attacks are connected, underscoring vulnerabilities in critical infrastructure amid escalating geopolitical conflict.
