German intelligence: Russian sabotage almost caused plane crash

Oct 15, 2024

Berlin [Germany], October 15: An act of sabotage believed to be linked to Russia came close to causing a plane crash in Germany this year, intelligence services warned on Monday. The incident in July saw a package catch fire at a DHL logistics centre in the eastern city of Leipzig, setting a cargo container alight. Thomas Haldenwang, the head of the domestic intelligence agency (BfV), told lawmakers in a public session of a parliamentary oversight committee that only a lucky coincidence had prevented the package from bursting into flame while aboard a plane. The package, which arrived in Germany from the Baltic region, is believed to have remained in the cargo centre after the flight it was due to travel on was delayed, dpa has learned.
