  "account": "In Wunstorf, investigators are examining potential links between the discovery of drone parts near the Bundeswehr flying range and an incident at Leipzig airport. A spokeswoman for the Karlsruhe office stated, \"If a connection could exist, we will look into it.\" According to security sources, the drone in question was not a standard model but a custom-built aircraft with unique components. No explosive traces were found, yet similarities with the explosive drone from Leipzig/Halle airport were noted. The drone's discovery site, about two kilometers from Wunstorf, suggested it might have been a Russian surveillance attempt. The drone, which was found by chance, was likely there for some time, according to the report. Earlier, NDR had reported on similarities between the Wunstorf drone parts and those connected to the Leipzig case. One component was reportedly 3D-printed and not commercially available. The spokeswoman for the Federal Attorney's office stated that they generally do not comment on reports.",
