A fire at a factory in Pardubice, operated by Czech drone maker LPP, is under investigation for possible ties to Russian interests. The fire, which occurred on Friday, has been described by police as a deliberate attack.
Although an anti-Israel group claimed responsibility through emails sent to the media, LPP and police are also examining other potential motives, including Russian involvement. The incident did not affect the scheduled delivery of 40 attack drones to Ukraine.
While police declined to comment on the investigation’s potential Russia link, they are exploring various motives. Russia consistently denies accusations of hybrid attacks in EU countries, attributing such claims to Russophobia.
