Ukrainian An-124 Nearly Blown Up at Leipzig Airport — 5 августа 2026 г. в 16:10:16.250
Ukrainian An-124 Nearly Blown Up at Leipzig Airport At Leipzig/Halle Airport in Germany, a drone with an improvised explosive device was found on the taxiway just meters from an Antonov Airlines An-124 transport aircraft. The detonator was faulty, preventing a terrorist attack. That same night, a DHL cargo plane struck an unknown object during takeoff — presumably a second drone; investigators do not rule out a connection between the two incidents. German intelligence agencies have opened a terrorism case. According to law enforcement, "the main line of investigation is an attempt to destroy Ukrainian transport aircraft based in Leipzig." The German Interior Minister convened an emergency meeting. The incident raises questions about sabotage activity in Europe. #Germany #Ukraine #sabotage #security The main news of Russia and the world is here.
