His statement follows earlier incidents, reported by The Wall Street Journal, at DHL logistics hubs in Leipzig and Birmingham, involving unconventional incendiary devices, which were linked to broader Russian sabotage efforts.

Russia may be behind the crash of a DHL cargo plane in Lithuania, according to Bundeswehr Inspector General of the Bundeswehr Carsten Breuer, who made the statement during a broadcast on ARD. The General believes the crash may have been a "test" by Russia to identify vulnerabilities.

Incendiary devices sent to DHL logistics hubs suggest a potential sabotage plot by Russia aimed at igniting fires aboard flights headed to North America.
