Current Incidents – Germany & Europe
📍 Berlin/Frankfurt – Sabotage der deutschen Gasversorgung
Der Generalbundesanwalt ermittelt gegen russische Agenten wegen versuchter Sabotage der deutschen Gasversorgung. Die Ermittlungen zeigen, dass kritische Infrastruktur in Deutschland massiv durch hybride Kriegsführung und gezielte Sabotageakte bedroht ist.
📍 Berlin – Hamas-Waffennetzwerk ausgehoben
In einer koordinierten Aktion europäischer Sicherheitsbehörden wurden 9 Personen in Deutschland, Großbritannien, Dänemark und Zypern festgenommen. Die Gruppe soll Waffen für Anschläge in Berlin deponiert haben. Die Ermittlungen werden vom Generalbundesanwalt geführt.
📍 Amsterdam (Niederlande) – Massive Explosion
Eine massive Explosion zerstörte ein Fitnessstudio in einem Wohnblock in Amsterdam. Sieben Menschen wurden verletzt, 400 Bewohner mussten evakuiert werden. Die Polizei geht von einem gezielten Sprengstoffanschlag aus dem Milieu der organisierten Kriminalität aus.
Maritime security incidents
Ostsee – NATO warnt vor Sabotage
13 NATO-Nationen warnen gemeinsam vor zunehmenden hybriden Sabotageakten gegen kritische Untersee-Infrastruktur (Kabel, Pipelines) in der Ostsee durch staatliche Akteure.
Piraterie-Warnung Golf von Guinea
Internationale Schifffahrtsbehörden verzeichnen einen erneuten Anstieg bewaffneter Überfälle auf Handelsschiffe. Erhöhte Sicherheitsstufen für die Region ausgerufen.
Rotes Meer – Huthi-Angriffe

Aviation security incidents
Flughafen Innsbruck (AT)
Flughafen nach E-Mail-Bombendrohung gesperrt. Der gesamte Flugverkehr wurde für rund zwei Stunden eingestellt, Passagiere evakuiert.
BER Terminal 2 geräumt
Das Terminal 2 des Flughafens Berlin Brandenburg (BER) musste nach einer Bombendrohung geräumt werden. Bundespolizei und Sprengstoffexperten im Einsatz.
Bombendrohung Flug Frankfurt–London
Eine Passagiermaschine musste nach einer Drohung kurz vor dem Start in Frankfurt evakuiert werden. Gepäck und Maschine wurden mit Spürhunden durchsucht.
Geldautomatensprengungen: Erfolge der Prävention, aber Gefahr bleibt
Die Sprengung von Geldautomaten durch organisierte Kriminalität ist 2025 deutlich zurückgegangen. Dank verbesserter Prävention, Farbpatronen und verstärktem Polizeidruck sanken die Fallzahlen auf 135 (Handelsblatt LKA-Umfrage). Dennoch setzen Tätergruppen weiterhin auf hochexplosive Stoffe, die massive Schäden an Gebäuden verursachen und Menschenleben gefährden.
✓ Wie MK9S helfen kann
Unsere LBA-zertifizierten Sprengstoffspürhunde können Fahrzeuge, Lagerhallen und verdächtige Objekte präventiv absuchen. Bei Durchsuchungen nach Geldautomatensprengungen können wir Ermittlungsbehörden bei der Lokalisierung von verstecktem Sprengstoff und Tatmitteln unterstützen, bevor dieser für weitere Taten verwendet wird.
Bomb threats: Hundreds of deployments, massive disruptions
Bombendrohungen haben in Deutschland 2025 und 2026 dramatisch zugenommen. Von Rathäusern über Schulen bis hin zu Flughäfen – die Drohungen führen zu großflächigen Evakuierungen, Betriebsunterbrechungen und hohen Kosten. Auch wenn viele Drohungen sich als Falschmeldungen herausstellen, muss jede ernst genommen und professionell abgearbeitet werden.
Anklage: 105 Bombendrohungen
Ein 16-Jähriger aus Halle wurde angeklagt, bundesweit 105 Bombendrohungen gegen Schulen und Krankenhäuser in drei Bundesländern verschickt zu haben.
MDR-Bericht ↗Flughäfen BER & Innsbruck
Terminal 2 am BER und der Flughafen Innsbruck mussten nach Bombendrohungen geräumt werden. Der Flugverkehr wurde für Stunden eingestellt.
ORF-Bericht ↗Grenzüberschreitende Evakuierung
Ein 24-Stunden-Flohmarkt in Kreuzlingen (CH) und Konstanz (DE) wurde nach einer telefonischen Bombendrohung evakuiert. Spürhunde im Einsatz.
SRF-Bericht ↗✓ Wie MK9S helfen kann
Every minute counts when it comes to bomb threats. Our explosives detection dogs can search buildings, event locations, luggage and vehicles quickly and reliably. We work closely with the police and security authorities and are ready for action within a very short time - anywhere in Germany.
Terror defense: Preventive detection saves lives
Die Bedrohung durch terroristische Anschläge ist in Deutschland real. Sicherheitsbehörden vereiteln regelmäßig geplante Anschläge, bei denen Sprengstoff und Waffen eine zentrale Rolle spielen. Präventive Sprengstoffdetektion ist ein entscheidender Baustein moderner Sicherheitsarchitektur – insbesondere bei Großveranstaltungen, kritischer Infrastruktur und sensiblen Einrichtungen.
Ermittlungen gegen Hamas-Waffennetzwerk und russische Sabotage
Im Juni 2026 ermittelte der Generalbundesanwalt gleich in zwei großen Komplexen: Ein Hamas-Waffennetzwerk wurde in Europa ausgehoben (9 Festnahmen in DE, GB, DK, CY), welches Waffen für Anschläge in Berlin deponiert haben soll. Parallel laufen Ermittlungen gegen russische Agenten wegen versuchter Sabotage der deutschen Gasversorgung. Der Fall zeigt: Terroristische und hybride Bedrohungen sind keine abstrakte Gefahr, sondern konkrete Realität.
Assessment of MK9S: Take the threat situation seriously, act professionally
Our analysis of the current security situation and recommendations for those responsible
The documented incidents clearly show this: The threat posed by explosives and explosive substances is real in Germany and requires a professional response. The professionalization of ATM blasts and the real danger of terrorist attacks make it clear that reactive measures alone are not enough.
Preventive explosives detection is a key component of modern security architecture. It's about recognizing threats before they become a danger. Whether it's finding the explosives of a criminal gang, clearing a building after a bomb threat, or securing an event as a preventative measure - the use of highly qualified explosives detection dogs is often the most efficient and reliable method.
Our recommendation: Take the threat situation seriously, but don't panic. Analyze your specific risk and integrate proactive detection measures into your security concept. Rely on certified and tested quality - the use of highly qualified explosives detection dogs is not a "nice-to-have", but a professional tool for situations where reliability is essential.
Threats are real
456 ATM blasts, hundreds of bomb threats, foiled terrorist attacks - the figures speak for themselves.
Prevention is the key
Reactive measures are not enough. Preventive detection recognizes threats before they become a danger.
Quality decides
LBA certification, regular tests and experienced dog handlers are not an option, but a must.
💡 Our recommendation for action
Analyze your specific risk: Are you an operator of critical infrastructure? Organizer of major events? Operator of sensitive facilities? Integrate proactive explosives detection into your security concept. We will be happy to advise you on your options without obligation - without pressure to sell, but with expertise gained from hundreds of deployments.
