In the early hours of January 3, 2026, a deliberate sabotage attack on critical electricity infrastructure near the Lichterfelde power station in southwest Berlin triggered a widespread brownout and partial blackout affecting tens of thousands of residents and businesses. A fire was set at a cable bridge over the Teltow Canal, severely damaging several high-voltage and medium-voltage power lines that supplied electricity and district heating to the area. Authorities quickly treated the incident as sabotage. A left-wing extremist group calling itself the “Vulkangruppe” (Volcano Group) claimed responsibility in an extensive online manifesto, stating the attack was aimed at fossil fuel infrastructure and the perceived abuses of modern industrial society. However, people analyzing the manifesto found peculiar wording, grammar errors and spelling errors indicating that the original text was not German, but originated in Russian. Russia frequently uses disposable agents, tasked to destroy and disrupt critical infrastructure in countries which Moscow considers enemy states.

🚨 Unknown drones spotted over Germany’s Arrow 3 missile defense system — designed to protect Europe from “Oreshnik” In Germany, three unidentified drones were spotted flying over radar installations of the Arrow 3 missile defense system. The incident occurred at Annaburg Air Base, just two days before the system was due to enter service, according to Defense Romania. The drones were flying at an altitude of about 100 meters. A rapid response unit of the Bundeswehr was quickly deployed. Soldiers attempted to intercept the UAVs using G27P assault rifles, but were unable to shoot them down. German counterintelligence and military police classified the incident as “deliberate espionage.” The Arrow 3 system was acquired under the European Sky Shield Initiative and is intended to protect European airspace. The system is designed to intercept ballistic missiles, including Russia’s “Oreshnik.”

Under the U.S. Department of Defense’s 2026 National Defense Strategy, Russia “will remain a persistent but manageable threat to NATO’s eastern members for the foreseeable future… The Department will ensure that U.S. forces are prepared to defend against Russian threats to the U.S. Homeland. The Department will also continue to play a vital role in NATO itself, even as we calibrate U.S. force posture and activities in the European theater to better account for the Russian threat to American interests as well as our allies’ own capabilities. Moscow is in no position to make a bid for European hegemony. European NATO dwarfs Russia in economic scale, population, and, thus, latent military power… Although we are and will remain engaged in Europe, we must—and will—prioritize defending the U.S. Homeland and deterring China. Fortunately, our NATO allies are substantially more powerful than Russia—it is not even close. Germany’s economy alone dwarfs that of Russia. At the same time, under President Trump’s leadership, NATO allies have committed to raise defense spending to the new global standard of 5% of GDP in total, with 3.5% of GDP invested in hard military capabilities. Our NATO allies are therefore strongly positioned to take primary responsibility for Europe’s conventional defense, with critical but more limited U.S. support. This includes taking the lead in supporting Ukraine’s defense.”
