German prosecutors are investigating a failed attack on a substation near Düsseldorf, in the west of the country, days after a similar incident triggered a power blackout in Berlin.
Police started a probe after a letter accepting responsibility from the radical left-wing group known as Kommando Angry Birds was published on the Indymedia platform on Jan. 5, Attorney General Wolf-Tilman Baumert said.
It remains unclear when the attack took place, he said. Investigators said an incendiary device was deployed, but declined to give details.
Germany is on alert after Berlin suffered its longest power outage in decades, caused by an arson attack on a cable bridge, also claimed by a left-wing extremist group. Electricity was fully restored on Wednesday.
You are aware that this article references a failed attack across the country in another city supposedly claimed by another group? Noone distanced themselves from this one.
I suggest reading the post again. The first three paragraphs reference Düsseldorf, yes. The last paragraph, that I cited, references Berlin.
