In a recent development‚ Polish prosecutors pointed towards Russian intelligence services involvement in last summers package-bomb incidents that affected several European courier depots. The well-planned scheme which targeted facilities in Poland Germany and Britain couldʼve led to in-flight disasters
The investigation uncovered that these explosive-laden packages originated from Vilnius Lithuania; their final destinations were meant to be North-American bound cargo flights. Przemyslaw Nowak (Polish Prosecutors Office spokesperson) stated that evidence strongly suggests Russian special services planned these acts of sabotage
Four Ukrainian citizens are now in custody while authorities are actively searching for two Russian nationals connected to this cross-border plot. The investigation which started around mid-2024 involves close co-operation with other EU law-enforcement agencies
The evidence collected in the case indicates a high probability that the discussed acts of sabotage were inspired by Russian special services
The Russian embassy in Warsaw quickly dismissed these claims calling them baseless and without merit. Western security experts however note that this fits into a broader pattern of attempts to destabilize Ukraineʼs allies
These incidents which happened about 4 months ago represent a significant step-up in potential threat level - targeting international air cargo routes couldʼve caused severe consequences. The prosecutors who first mentioned foreign intelligence involvement back in Oct without naming Russia are now explicitly linking Moscow to the plot
