## Resource

Germany’s critical infrastructure is under siege as sabotage attempts surge—power grids, train lines, and defense sites targeted in a wave of attacks from Brandenburg to Munich. Authorities report over 160 potential incidents and 700 suspicious drone sightings this year, with suspects linked to Bulgaria recently arrested. Tensions with Russia have escalated, and experts warn this marks a new era of hybrid warfare, fueled by Germany’s staunch support for Ukraine. Security is tightening, but balancing protection with civil liberties remains a daunting challenge. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
