I’ll leave the latest information on the German airport drone until after the outline of today’s events.
A drone exploded in Bulgaria near the Kardam border-crossing with Romania, coming within 1,000 meters of the Trans-Balkan gas pipeline’s compressor station. [See Map]
Bulgaria’s defense ministry said the drone carried a ‘significant’ quantity of explosives and was of a type “widely used by the Ukrainian military.” However, Ukraine has denied [::cough::] “intentionally” [::cough::] striking Bulgaria with one of their drones.
Yahoo: Ukraine on Saturday denied targeting Bulgaria after a drone exploded close to the strategic Trans-Balkan gas pipeline linking Turkey to Ukraine near the Romanian border.
Bulgaria’s defence ministry said the drone was of a type “widely used by the Ukrainian military”, and the foreign minister summoned the Ukrainian ambassador for a meeting on Monday in response, her office told AFP.
Kyiv said it was “in close contact with the Bulgarian side to clarify the circumstances” of the incident, the latest case of a drone straying into NATO airspace as Ukraine fights off Russia’s invasion.
“We can say with certainty that the Ukrainian Armed Forces did not intentionally direct any assets toward Bulgaria,” Ukraine’s foreign ministry spokesman Georgiy Tykhyi said, blaming Russia’s invasion for the incident.
While the explosion caused no casualties, Bulgarian Prime Minister Rumen Radev said the amount of explosives it was carrying was “significant”. (more)
Turkey, Bulgaria, Romania and Ukraine all border the Black Sea where Ukraine has been carrying out extensive drone operations targeting a host of commercial vessels that are not only Russian.
Turkey’s foreign minister on Saturday called for a “moratorium” on attacks by Russia and Ukraine in the body of water in an interview with Turkey’s state news agency Anadolu. “To begin with, they targeted the ports and the military ships,” said Hakan Fidan. “Now, they are attacking all commercial shipping without distinction.”
Turkey had already on Tuesday denounced Black Sea drone attacks on two Turkish civilian vessels the previous day, in which some crew members were injured. (source)
Again, CTH will note something has shifted in the behavior of Ukraine since June 11th, when Zelenskyy visited London. There just appears to be something more desperate in their activity. The mysterious drone activity coming after the Ukraine intelligence parcel bombings in Monaco and Moscow are datapoints toward this activity.
The latest information on the drone at the Leipzig/Halle Airport in Germany is very interesting. “German authorities report the drone carried two SIM cards for redundant remote control a canned‑food container repurposed as an explosive charge custom wiring and mounts designed to bypass airport security systems.”
Now the Germans appear to be saying someone carried the drone into the airport in component parts, then assembled it beyond the security checkpoint. Remember, this was in the cargo flight area, and there are five unused Antonov cargo planes in the vicinity. Two belong to Ukraine and 3 belong to Russia (grounded under sanctions). I highly doubt it was a Russian national working at the airport that also services NATO cargo.
Is a false flag attack against a NATO interest the next phase?
Suspicious ¹Eddie remains, well, increasingly suspicious.
[¹Suspicious Cat is on assignment, & busy monitoring Moldova]
Ukraine and NATO must be destroyed.
U.S. must form an alliance with Russia.
It would be ideal.
Perhaps they think a false flag operation will pull all of NATO into the theater…doubtful and let’s hope not.
Spidey senses indicate Presidents Trump and Putin speak regularly about an “alliance”. I personally would like to see the Euro-weenies in a situation where they have to admit defeat and focus on taking care of their populations before winter. It WILL be a very difficult winter for Europe this year, even if the Strait of Hormuz is opened in the next week.
I don’t think that is needed. They will do it to themselves.
Who’s to say this possibility has already been discussed by Trump and Rubio. These countries are aware of these baiting incidents.
Russia is already spoken for (and very dependent on) by China, Iran and North Korea.
Hey Eddie, thanks for weighing in.
Eddie has a great side eye.
I agree that Ukraine is Desperate. This past week I noted a story that EVERY SINGLE Russian missile and drone hit targets as NONE were intercepted because Ukraine is out of interceptors. What better way to force European countries to supply them then bring the fight to their soil.

The Ukrainian drones are an inexpensive way for the little cokehead nazi to keep his lost cause war in the headlines. There’s zero odds in betting for a false flag event in a NATO country committed by Ukraine
Astute observation Nash. The piano clown gets more desperate by the day. He and the EU and IC are all in the same sinking boat.
President Trump has strategically ignored, sidestepped, is openly dealing with Russia, chastising NATO especially when they invite it (Spain, Italy) come to mind, demeaning the UKR/RUS war in favor of defeating Iran etc etc… knowing that the war will eventually end without US taxpayer monies continuing to back and feed the UKR machine. Spit
Agree; this is rather amazing.
I believe and pray President Trump and Putin are enlightened enough not to fall for a false flag.
I also believe Putin is smart and won’t do anything trigger Article 5.
Why is it no evidence of the drone or its operation system is ever revealed or GPS tracking plan ?
because that would give the game away….
Of all the people in the world I would not eff with, it’s Erdogan. Dude is as sly and malevolent. Z-tard would get taken down without hesitation.
Hey! Maybe he should mess with the Ottomans.
I would be keeping a close watch on the big NATO base in Romania on the Black Sea near Constanta.
Which reminds me that there is also one of the Aegis Ashore systems operational in Romania.
I imagine a whole suspicious brigade with paws on the ground validating facts for Sundance 😂
I agree with Eddie; I’m suspicious, too!
False Flag flying up there at full mast, maybe?
Glad to hear Suspicious Cat is keeping an eye on Moldova. I can’t figure out if/how/when Transnistria will be in play if Russia keeps making ground in Ukraine. Eagerly awaiting Suspicious Cat’s take on things.
I would like to hear the Promethean gals weigh in on this given what is happening is AFTER Sniffy the Clown visited London.
A drone with a “significant” explosive charge comes down within 1,000 meters of a Trans-Balkan natural gas pipeline compressor station. In all of Romania and Bulgaria, it just happens to explode very near to one of the main pipelines supplying Romania, Bulgaria and Turkey with natural gas. All three of those countries are now upset and highly concerned. Just a little too coincidental? If it was a Ukrainian drone, it would not be the first time Ukraine has tried to interfere with energy flows affecting NATO countries, now would it? Not intentional, of course, and all because of Russia making war on Ukraine.
But where is suspicious Pete Hegseth?? 🤔
Just a Ukrainian drone several hundred miles and two nations off-course, which just happened to explode within a mile of a critical gas pipeline, which just happened to happen after another mysterious drone manifested itself into existence at a German airport.
Ukraine is entering the Divine Wind period of this conflict.
Awww! Eddie is adorable!
A wise dog trainer once told me….”Always listen to your dog.”
The standard story line will apply:
“The Russians jammed the drone with Electronic Warfare causing it to veer off course and strike Bulgaria.”
City of London/Globalists False Flag:
You two, need to fight each other!
