German security authorities have issued a warning about “unconventional incendiary devices” being sent through European freight services. Several packages, sent by unknown individuals, have caught fire during transit in various European countries.

A recent incident at Leipzig’s DHL logistics centre, where a package from the Baltics ignited, has raised suspicions of Russian sabotage.

The Federal Office for the Protection of the Constitution and the Federal Criminal Police Office have alerted aviation and logistics companies, and the Federal Prosecutor General in Karlsruhe has taken over the investigation. Further incendiary incidents are anticipated.
