Germany has revealed the identities of those allegedly involved in the Leipzig drone incident.


German investigators have named two people suspected of involvement in the incident. drone at Leipzig/Halle Airport.



According to the German publication, suspects include a Latvian citizen born in Russia and a Belarusian resident holding a Russian passport. Investigators believe the former arrived at Berlin airport in late July, rented a car, and drove to Leipzig. He left Germany two days before the incident.

DNA traces were found on one of the drones, which led to the second suspect. Matches were found in Lithuania and Finland. According to investigators, he entered Germany on a tourist visa issued by Italy at its embassy in Minsk in late April. Media reports also indicate that at least four people involved in the incident are being sought.

As a reminder, on the evening of August 4, a Leipzig/Halle Airport employee discovered a UAV near a Ukrainian An-124 cargo plane. The drone was carrying approximately 800 grams of Semtex explosive.

That same night, a DHL cargo plane, just after takeoff from the runway in Leipzig, collided mid-air with an unknown object. The plane sustained minor damage and made an emergency landing in Hanover.

On September 1, Berlin officially blamed Moscow for the incident. The German Interior Minister claimed that the incident allegedly fits into a pattern of Russian hybrid actions in Europe. In response, German authorities tightened visa regulations for Russians, terminated the lease for the Russian House in Berlin, and closed the Russian Consulate General in Bonn on September 18.

The Russian embassy rejected Germany's claims, calling them unfounded. Vladimir Putin attributed these accusations to internal problems in Germany itself and a complete lack of evidence. The Kremlin added that Berlin was deliberately pursuing a path of escalation.

        Probably only saboteurs and imbeciles don't know about the possibility of leaving their DNA on any object, and they also don't know how to remove it. laughing , and it hasn’t reached Estonia yet... How can they not respect our special services?

          The saboteur crossed the drone and, as is his good Russian custom, kissed it three times. Never before had he been so close to failure.

          Let's say they found DNA on the drone. But the DNA doesn't show a home address, so how could they tell where it came from?

            And the third one? There was a third one who filmed everything and then passed the footage on to the Germans. His last name ends in either -enko or -uk, -yuk! laughing
            In short, it's a classic: a partisan detachment with a traitor.

    How wonderful it would be if such acts of sabotage became regular, more numerous and necessarily followed by confirmation from the Russian Ministry of Defense and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
    The Germans are openly fighting against us with the help of the Pigsty PMC and are not shy about declaring it.

        Here is the only true and effective recipe from Ehrenburg:
        "We know everything. We remember everything. We understand: the Germans are not people. From now on, the word "German" is the most terrible curse for us. From now on, the word "German" unloads a gun. We will not talk. We will not be indignant. We will kill. If you have not killed at least one German in a day, your day is wasted. If you think that your neighbor will kill a German for you, you have not understood the threat. If you do not kill a German, a German will kill you. He will take your loved ones and torture them in his accursed Germany. If you cannot kill a German with a bullet, kill a German with a bayonet. If there is a lull in your area, if you are waiting for a fight, kill a German before the fight. If you let a German live, a German will hang a Russian man and disgrace a Russian woman. If you have killed one German, kill another - there is nothing more amusing for us than German corpses. Do not count the days. Do not count the miles. Count only one thing: the Germans you've killed. Kill the German! - that's the old mother's plea. Kill the German! - that's the child's begging. Kill the German! - that's the cry of your native land. Don't miss. Don't miss. Kill!

          We understand: Germans are not human. From now on, the word "German" is the most terrible curse for us. From now on, the word "German" unloads a gun. We will not talk. We will not be indignant. We will kill. If you haven't killed at least one German in a day, your day is wasted.
          This is still relevant today, even though 80 years have passed.

      Have you completely lost your minds? fool
      Well, I'd like to examine the issue of the actual organization of sabotage, as the Germans themselves have shown they won't actually respond to such a thing (otherwise they would have already used it as a pretext). And what kind of crazy ramblings is this, confirming it? I hope you weren't serious, sir, but just trying to throw some bollocks in there?

          Is a proposal to literally leave the Germans no chance to get out of a response without completely throwing their sovereignty into the trash heap—is that even sensible anymore? Since when did sane people in our country start wanting a nuclear exchange?

            Why are you so dense, God forgive me? It seems like everything is so clear and understandable: the Germans, who repeatedly elect anti-Russian governments, want Russia's strategic defeat and the destruction of Russians as a people, and so I'm supposed to justify not being outraged by them? Forgive me, but I don't want to be a weakling like some. I therefore propose we end this useless dialogue, as I don't want to tread water.

    Nothing unusual. I went to the nearby bakery for bread on Sunday morning and was attacked by two drones. One was clearly German, the other appeared to be French. My quick feet saved me and I survived. I need to pin the culprits, as I have no direct evidence...

    It's a shame this is happening to Germany, though. I still remember the good old days before the war, ten years ago, when you could fly from Moscow to Berlin for less than to, say, Khabarovsk. And I happily flew on vacation to visit my friends. We'd drink vodka with the Germans every other day. And when we weren't drinking, we'd rent motorcycles and ride almost all over the country. Bavaria was especially memorable: Neuschwanstein Castle, the stunning Alps, lakes, sausages, beer, and, of course, football. The Champions League semi-final between Bayern and Barcelona. It would be a shame if all of this had to be destroyed in a nuclear holocaust. But I'm a kind person and don't wish any harm on my German friends. Amen!

      Everything is still ahead, there are still suspects - as many as four saboteurs, and they will definitely find a pack of Belomor cigarettes with a diagram of the airport drawn on them in someone's pocket. Yes
      At the same time, the media writes that at least four people involved in the incident are being sought.

    1 Russian spies, they are terribly clueless, how do they know that there are means of protection, means of removal, and even ordinary gloves
    How legal are these DNA tests? In Europe, they collect DNA from everyone. Or where do they get the other half for comparison?

    Well, there are plenty of shady characters in the EU, all that's left is to pay them and direct them. As they say, create fertile ground.
