German police responded on September 4 to two new suspected cases of sabotage targeting electrical infrastructure in the cities of Dormagen and Ganderkesee. Authorities are on alert following the drone attack on Leipzig Airport, which officials attributed to the Russian state.

In Dormagen, a facility was reportedly targeted in an attempt to cause a short circuit. According to Bild, a group claimed responsibility for the action in a letter received by police. In Ganderkesee, officers cordoned off a transformer station after making a suspicious discovery during the night. Authorities provided no details but said the public was not in danger.

The incidents add to two other cases investigated at the beginning of the week. An act of vandalism at a substation in Bergheim led to the temporary disconnection of generating units with a combined capacity of 4,200 megawatts. In eastern Germany, power lines at a high-voltage substation were damaged with conductive materials.

The investigations are taking place against the backdrop of the January 2026 attack on Berlin’s power grid, claimed by the far-left group Vulkangruppe. The power outage affected more than 100,000 people, while the Federal Prosecutor’s Office is investigating suspicions of terrorism and anti-constitutional sabotage.Considering the user asks to translate event fields from configured input, provide only JSON.
