German Police Find Launch Devices Near Power Plant After Sabotage Threat

Germany Power Grid Sabotage: Launch Devices Found Near Weisweiler Plant

German police discovered suspected launch devices near a high-voltage line close to the Weisweiler power plant in North Rhine-Westphalia, prompting a lockdown and partial closure of the A4 motorway. The find follows a tip about a suspicious person and comes amid a search for a 48-year-old man from Gevelsberg who allegedly claimed responsibility for recent sabotage attempts on Germany's electricity infrastructure. Investigators are probing links to earlier incidents in Weisweiler, Dormagen, and Bergheim. No major outages were reported.
