Incident near power plant: Sabotage on power grid near power plant in Brandenburg
Near the Jänschwalde coal-fired power plant in Brandenburg, the police are talking about finding explosive devices. More information is now available. Was it a suspected attack?
Two sabotage incidents occurred at a substation near the Jänschwalde power plant in South Brandenburg, where conductive material was introduced into the high-voltage line, but did not affect the power supply. According to Interior Minister Jan Redmann, there were two successful cases and several attempted ones, with a double-digit number of additional devices found.
No people were injured and no power outage occurred, said Redmann, adding that the area is still being searched and investigations are underway in all directions. The minister described it as a systematic approach, aiming to cause a short circuit with the conductive material.
