Germany blames Russia for drone attack on Ukrainian plane at Leipzig airport
A drone carrying 1.8 kg of Semtex struck the wing of a parked Ukrainian An-124 cargo aircraft at Leipzig/Halle Airport on the night of August 5, failing to detonate. A joint Telegraph/Welt investigation identified Russian biker Oleg Levushkin as the likely organizer, with German investigators suspecting Belarusian agent Andrey Karshakov as the executor. Germany officially accused Russia of the attack on September 1 and announced countermeasures, including the closure of Russia's consulate general in Bonn.
