Package with hidden fire-starting device caught flames in German shipping hub this summer. Investigation shows links to wider plot targeting North-American flights‚ with several arrests made in Poland

Security teams uncovered a dangerous scheme when a modified electronic-massager caught fire at DHLʼs Leipzig hub this past summer. The device (packed with flammable magnesium) was headed to a non-existing UK address from Lithuania; its early ignition might have saved many lives

Investigators found that similar parcels made their way to US and Canadian destinations without dangerous materials — likely testing delivery routes. The scheme links to Russian operatives who wanted to check if their packages could pass through security checks

Polish authorities made quick moves: they caught 4 people in their counter-intelligence work (while 2 more suspects remain free). The group sent packages with hidden dangerous items through international shipping services; their main target was North-American bound flights

These allegations are no more than a stoking of Russophobic hysteria

US transport officials dont share specific info about the plot but say theres no current risk to flights. TSA put in place new rules for checking cargo: “We adjust our security as needed and share info with partners to lower risks“
