NATO Air Base in Germany Closed Due to Possible Sabotage

The air base in the city of Gildenkirchen, located in western Germany, has been closed due to possible sabotage. This was reported today by the Süddeutsche Zeitung, citing a representative of the territorial command.

Previously, the German Ministry of Defense announced that unidentified individuals had entered the barracks of the Cologne air base, raising concerns of a sabotage. Following this incident, a decision was made to close the Gildenkirchen barracks.

Additionally, authorities are currently investigating a potential contamination of drinking water. Unconfirmed reports suggest that concerns over sabotage have intensified in connection with the closure of the barracks in Cologne. However, later NATO denied reports regarding the closure of the Gildenkirchen air base, stating that it has never been under blockade, as noted by Газета.Ru.
