Germany has been hit by several suspicious incidents, just a day after the German government accused Russia of being behind the failed attack in Leipzig.

The events have raised public concerns that the country may be entering a new period of sabotage and small explosions. At 3:15 a.m., a hand grenade exploded at a crossing near the train station in Augsburg, Bavaria. A Turkish jeweler and another person were slightly injured in the explosion. Authorities are investigating the circumstances of the incident.

Another incident occurred the day before at the Janschualde power plant, one of the largest energy plants in Brandenburg. According to reports, at least ten explosive devices were placed in the area and one of them is suspected to have exploded.

Meanwhile, the power station in Bergheim, near Cologne, has also been targeted. The mayor has described the incident as "sabotage", while further details have not yet been made public.

The lack of complete information from German authorities is fueling questions about whether these episodes are linked or isolated incidents. Germany has traditionally been cautious about publishing details about critical infrastructure and its security vulnerabilities.

In this climate, the increasingly widespread question is whether the country is entering a "new normal," where sabotage, explosions, and attacks on infrastructure may become more frequent.

The concern also comes at a time when Berlin has been toughening its rhetoric towards Moscow. Following accusations of Russian involvement in the failed attack in Leipzig, German Interior and Foreign Ministers Alexander Dobrindt and Johann Wadephul sharply condemned Russia.

However, German Chancellor Friedrich Merz did not appear at the important conference on the issue himself. According to political analysts cited in the article, Merz may be preserving some room for maneuver to react if the situation escalates further, rather than immediately declaring the situation a higher-level crisis.

Another factor could be domestic politics. Merz is particularly unpopular in eastern Germany, and in the run-up to the Saxony-Anhalt election, the AfD is reported to be polling at around 40 percent, according to polls. The Russia issue and the escalation of war rhetoric could be politically sensitive in the former East Germany, where a section of the electorate continues to hold more favorable attitudes toward Moscow.

At the moment, it has not been confirmed whether the three incidents are part of a single operation or whether Russia is behind them. Investigations by German authorities are expected to determine whether they are coordinated sabotage, isolated criminal acts or incidents of other origins.
