Overview

• Prosecutors named coordinators Daniil Gromov, who also used the identity Jaroslav Mikhailov, and Tomas Dovgan Stabacinskas, with a third suspect, Andrej Baburov, sought under international notices.
• Four parcels mailed from Vilnius on July 19, 2024, carried improvised explosive-incendiary devices, with incidents recorded at Leipzig Airport, on a DPD truck in Poland, and at a DHL warehouse in Birmingham, while one device failed to ignite.
• Investigators say the devices used electronic timers, were concealed in massage cushions and cosmetic tubes, and contained thermite as the incendiary component.
• Authorities reported seizing more than six kilograms of explosives and conducting searches in Lithuania, Poland, Latvia, and Estonia, where additional explosives and detonators were found hidden in canned food containers.
• Officials previously assessed the mailings as a test of methods to ignite parcels on cargo flights to the United States, with recruits sourced via Telegram and paid in cryptocurrency.
