German probe links Serbia to alleged Russian plot against Ukrainian plane in Leipzig

German investigators are examining whether Serbia was used as a staging ground for a suspected Russian operation targeting a Ukrainian military transport aircraft at Leipzig airport. The investigation reportedly traces a trail from Leipzig to Kanjiža, a town in northern Serbia, implicating Serbian territory in Russian covert activity. The claim is based on investigative reporting and remains unconfirmed; the incident signals potential expansion of Russian sabotage operations into the Balkans and raises questions about Serbian complicity.
