Innere Sicherheit: Sprengstoff-Drohne in Leipzig: Russland sieht „Provokation“
Zwar halten sich Ermittler und die Bundesregierung mit Schuldzuweisungen zurück. Aber Experten machen Russland für den Drohnenfall auf dem Flughafen Halle/Leipzig verantwortlich. Nun reagiert Moskau.
On Wednesday, a drone rigged with explosives was discovered at Leipzig/Halle Airport, prompting the Russian Embassy in Berlin to label the incident a provocation aimed at Kyiv and the militarist wing of Europe's political class. The Russian diplomatic mission claimed in a Telegram message that the hastily assembled provocation served only the interests of Kyiv and the aggressive faction within Europe's political sphere.
Simultaneously, the embassy warned of a "new wave of anti-Russian hysteria" brewing in Germany. According to the embassy, the hybrid attack targeted Ukraine, which lacked weapons. The Russian embassy argued that Ukraine and European governments needed evidence to continue funneling unlimited financial resources to a corrupt regime.
The embassy criticized the drone discovery, as presented as a hybrid attack to incite sentiment against Moscow in the media. As in previous cases, no evidence was presented.
