Germany investigates suspected fire at Munich defense company

Público3 September 2026 at 15:12

German authorities are investigating a suspected fire at the defense company Hensoldt in Munich, which specializes in the production of drone detection systems. Bavarian police detained two Bulgarian citizens as suspects of deliberately setting fire to the company's facilities.

Hensoldt is a defense sector company that develops technology for drone detection and identification, including radars and sensors. The attack occurred at the company's facilities located in the Munich region in southern Germany.

In parallel, Russia announced the closure of Goethe-Institut cultural centers in the country. This measure comes in a context of diplomatic tensions between Germany and Russia, and may be related to ongoing investigations into Russian espionage and sabotage activities on German territory.
