According to RCO News Agency, Estonian Defense Minister Hanu Pokor accused the special forces of the Russian army of playing a role in the explosion of a warehouse belonging to the defense company “Del” in Germany and said: “The theory of Russian involveme in the explosions of a military production facility in Germany is very It is possible.”
At the “Globesk” conference, which was held on Saturday, he said, referring to the explosion of the Dale arms warehouse in Germany yesterday: “The Germans are investigating the cause of the explosion of the Dale defense warehouse. If the responsibility of the special forces of the Russian army is confirmed in this explosion, I will not be too shocked because they have always targeted our defense industries.”
The Dale defense industry factory in Truisdorf, Germany exploded on Friday. In the spring of 2024, another factory of this company suffered a massive fire, and despite European couries poiing the finger of accusation towards Russia as the cause of this fire, Berlin’s investigation did not reach such a conclusion.
