Confirmations that it was sabotage
“We cannot rule out that there is Russia also behind the attack on rail services”, commented the Green politician, as well as the President of the European Commission from the Bundestag, Anton Hofreiter. It was then General Carsten Breuer who reiterated the Bild that, for the future, “every crucial station, every pipeline involved in the energy transport is a potential target, in light of the hybrid threat.”
