Three Ukrainians have been arrested in Germany and Switzerland, suspected of being agents for Russia in a plot involving parcel bombs aimed at sabotage. Prosecutors allege that the suspects planned to send explosive devices hidden in parcels during transit to Ukraine. Arrested were Vladyslav T. and Daniil B. in Germany and Yevhen B. in Switzerland. The operation reportedly included 'test packages' equipped with GPS trackers. This incident reflects ongoing concerns about hybrid warfare tactics employed by Russia following its invasion of Ukraine in 2022.
The men are suspected of being secret agents for the purpose of sabotage and agreeing to commit arson and bring about an explosion.
The suspects planned to send parcels containing explosive or incendiary devices from Germany to Ukraine, designed to detonate during freight transport.
Berlin has been closely monitoring the threat of sabotage plots by Moscow following Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine in February 2022.
Experts called the alleged plot an example of hybrid warfare from Russia, combining conventional military operations with non-military tactics.
