Germany blames Russia for August 4 drone bombing at Leipzig airport, closes Russian consulate in Bonn

Germany has shut the Russian consulate in Bonn and closed the Russian House. The move answers the August 4 drone bombing at Leipzig airport. European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen called Leipzig "a new escalation on European Union soil directly attributed to Russia."

What was found:

• One drone was defused. A third turned up at the airport ten days later.
• Danish intelligence reported plans for Russian attacks on Danish and Ukrainian defense firms in Denmark, using people hired online.
