Two German citizens with Russian citizenship arrested on suspicion of spying for Moscow. One of them even planned to blow up and set fire to military facilities, including that of the US Army.
The two were arrested yesterday in the city of Bayreuth in Bavaria. Germany is Ukraine's second largest arms supplier and is pressuring members of Congress in Washington to approve the large aid package for Kiev that has been stalled for months. Since the outbreak of war in Ukraine in 2022, it has announced that it has uncovered a series of espionage plots and conspiracies by Moscow. It is claimed that he was prepared to carry out sabotage operations against military bases, including those of the United States Army, by explosives and arson. The actions are specifically aimed at undermining the military support that Germany provides to Ukraine against the Russian war of aggression," the German prosecutors said in a statement.
