Germany Investigates Russian Links to Weapons Cache Suspected in Assassination Plot

German authorities are investigating a significant weapons cache discovered in a forest near Berlin, with reports suggesting a link to Russian intelligence. The stash, believed to contain handguns, is suspected of being intended for assassinations orchestrated on behalf of Moscow.

Federal prosecutors have opened an investigation into the discovery, citing suspicion of a serious act of violence threatening national security. This development follows closely on the heels of another incident where a drone carrying explosives was found at Leipzig airport. German officials are reportedly seeking the extradition of a suspect from Romania in connection with the weapons cache, underscoring the growing concern over potential foreign interference and destabilization efforts.
