Serbian President Aleksandar Vučić announced on Sunday that the Serbian army and police found two backpacks with explosives and detonators near a gas pipeline leading to Hungary. According to available information, the discovery was made in the town of Kanjiža in northern Serbia, near a compressor station. pravda.sk ↗ hnonline.sk ↗
Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán reacted to the situation by convening an emergency session of the National Defense Council and described the discovery as a serious threat to critical infrastructure. Orbán discussed the situation with Vučić by phone. Differing views on the incident have emerged between the two countries – while Hungary described it as a provocation, it remains unclear so far who is behind the placement of the explosives. teraz.sk ↗ Refresher.sk ↗
The Balkan Stream and TurkStream pipelines carry Russian gas to Hungary and onward to other European countries. Serbia is a candidate country for European Union membership and remains heavily dependent on Russian gas. The discovery of the explosives took place approximately one week before elections in Hungary, which affects the timing of the incident and its possible political dimension. Security forces of both countries are currently investigating the circumstances of the discovery and attempting to identify those responsible for the explosives. forum24.cz ↗ teraz.sk ↗
