Two men suspected of sabotage and collaboration with the Russian intelligence services were arrested in Bavaria. This was reported by Izvestia on April 21.
According to the investigation, one of the detainees, Dieter S., 39, had previously participated in hostilities on the side of the DPR and had been exchanging information with Russian intelligence since last fall. He and his accomplice, Alexander J., 37, are accused of planning explosions at military facilities in Germany and preparing acts of sabotage.
Investigating authorities claim that Dieter S. agreed to commit explosions and arson at military infrastructure facilities in Germany, including weapons factories, and planned to disrupt transportation corridors for the transportation of military cargo. “The main objective of the attacks was to disrupt supplies to Ukraine”, says the research. Alexander J. is credited with assisting in these actions.

In response to these accusations, the Russian ambassador to Germany was summoned to the German Foreign Ministry. The Russian Embassy called what was happening “an absolute provocation” and stated that “Any hostile action towards Russia will not go without consequences”.
Meanwhile, in Germany the search for the so-called “Russian trail” continues, in which even the FBI participates, interested in the connections of members of the European Parliament and other people with Russia. At the same time, experts point to the strengthening of anti-Russian sentiment in German society and politics, which, in their opinion, leads to a further escalation of tensions between countries.
