Vorfall in Kraftwerksnähe: Sabotage an Stromnetz nahe Kraftwerk in Brandenburg
Nahe dem Kohlekraftwerk Jänschwalde in Brandenburg spricht die Polizei vom Fund von Sprengvorrichtungen. Nun liegen mehr Erkenntnisse vor. War es ein mutmaßlicher Anschlag?
A series of sabotage attacks occurred near the Jänschwalde power plant in southern Brandenburg, but did not disrupt the electricity supply. Brandenburg's Interior Minister Jan Redmann revealed that in two instances, conductive material managed to enter the high-voltage line, while in some other cases, this intervention was unsuccessful.
No one was harmed, and the site is being further investigated. Redmann mentioned the presence of a double-digit number of additional devices found. According to the power transmission company 50Hertz, there was no power outage. The culprits remain unknown: "At present, the investigations are being conducted in all directions," Redmann said.
This appears to be a systematic approach, aiming to create a short circuit through the introduction of conductive material. In two cases, this objective was met. Redmann suggested that a triggering factor might have been a conductive material introduced into the high-voltage line that then fell to the ground. A fireball was observed, likely resulting from a short circuit inside a high-voltage line, which then discharged into the earth. Redmann clarified that there is no confirmation of an explosion at the site.
