Polish prosecutors revealed that recent parcel fires across Poland, Germany, and the UK were test runs by Russian military intelligence (GRU) aimed at sabotaging cargo flights to the US and Canada. Arrests have been made across Europe, and officials suspect Russia of using magnesium-based devices that ignited parcels, causing fires. Fires occurred in July at DHL hubs in Leipzig, Warsaw, and Minworth, UK. Authorities believe these were part of a broader campaign of sabotage targeting Western logistics. Germany’s intelligence agency confirmed that one fire nearly ignited mid-air, while Poland responded with diplomatic actions against Russia.
