2024-2026 European parcel bomb plot

The 2024-2026 European parcel bomb plot was a series of sabotage operations executed using incendiary devices that were hidden in parcels shipped through international courier networks in Europe and the UK. Joint investigation by German, Polish, Dutch, British and Lithuanian detectives have linked these incidents to individuals suspected of working for the Russian intelligence services, particularly the GRU (Russia’s military intelligence agency). The devices either ignited or exploded in courier depots in Germany, Poland, and the United Kingdom during 2024. European investigation suggesting these incidents were part of a coordinated plan, testing the vulnerability of international cargo transport systems. As of 2026, the investigations led to over twenty suspects that were part of the network.
