In Slovakia, on November 26, two citizens of Ukraine were detained on suspicion of threatening critical infrastructure. This was announced by representatives of the Ministry of Internal Affairs and the head of the Slovak Information Service Pavel Gaspar at a meeting of the State Security Council.

“At the intelligence level, we have recorded long-term coordinated activities by a certain group of people that could potentially affect security,” Gaspar said.

The Minister of Internal Affairs, Matusz Shutay Eshtok, confirmed that two people were detained and are currently in the pre-trial detention center, but did not give details. Pavel Gaspar added that other persons are also involved in this case, in particular, a Slovak with a Hungarian passport. Gašpar also stated that Slovakia is investigating the case regarding the threat of explosions in state institutions.

“We are not underestimating the threats, and the measures we are taking go beyond the standard,” he added.

In October, a citizen of Ukraine was detained in Poland on suspicion of preparing sabotage. According to Wyborcza, he became the 17th person detained by the Internal Security Agency of Poland who was recruited through a telegram. He confessed to working for the Russian special services and plans to set the factory on fire.

On May 21, Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk announced the arrest of nine people, including citizens of Ukraine, Belarus and Poland, who were suspected of committing sabotage on the order of Russian special services. According to Tusk, we are talking about an attempt to set fire to a paint factory in Wroclaw, sabotage in Lithuania and an IKEA warehouse.
