assisted him and then in turn they are thought to have been in contact with another person linked to russian intelligence services. now, some details are emerging about what they may have been looking at. these are military facilities inside germany, but the suggestion is this wasn'tjust spying, just collecting intelligence. that's something that happens normally. but they were considering particularly that one individual sabotage, carrying out some kind of explosion or fire at one of those facilities. and i think that's what makes this particularly significant and particularly different from, if you like, the run of the mill espionage cases, which we've seen many of in recent years, including in germany. president biden has announced new sanctions and export controls on iran. they will target the islamic revolutionary guard corps, iran's defence ministry and the governments missile and drone programme.
again, this is significant — we've seen some evidence in the past of russian intelligence carrying out sabotage activities in the past. there are reports that russian military intelligence, the gru, blew up an arms depot in the czech republic about a decade ago. but carrying out something like this in germany would certainly be significant. the suggestion is it's all part of attempts to undermine european support for the effort of ukraine in fighting russia. ukraine's prime minister is in washington to urge the us congress to pass a long—stalled foreign aid bill, which includes $61 billion earmarked for kyiv. the house of representatives is set to vote on the package this saturday. in an interview in washington, ukraine's prime minister told my colleague sumi somas—kanda about the risks of a russian victory in ukraine. the global system of security will be destroyed at all, and all the world will need to find and will need to look in for a new system of security.
reconnaissance at military sites in southern germany, including us military sites. what's significant is the suggestion this wasn't simply intelligence gathering, the kind of normal spying you'd expect, but actually plans for sabotage for carrying out some kind of explosion or arson at those sites. german media also reporting that one of those sites is where us military to train ukrainians on their tanks, and the suggestion certainly from german authorities is that this was linked to you ukraine, and an attempt to undermine german support for military action in ukraine against russia. at one of those men was, supposedly, in contact with people linked to the russian intelligence services. �* ., ., ., services. and, gordon, what are the authorities saying _ services. and, gordon, what are the authorities saying about _ services. and, gordon, what are the authorities saying about why - services. and, gordon, what are the authorities saying about why now, . authorities saying about why now, why germany? it is authorities saying about why now, why germany?— authorities saying about why now, why germany? it is significant that this issue of _ why germany? it is significant that this issue of military _ why germany? it is significant that this issue of military aid _ why germany? it is significant that this issue of military aid to - this issue of military aid to ukraine is clearly at a very important point in which ukrainians
of those it appears had been spending some time carrying out reconnaissance of military facilities. the second man is thought to have assisted him, and then in turn they are thought to have been in contact with another person linked to russian intelligence services. some details are emerging about what they may have been looking at, these are military facilities inside germany, but at the suggestion is that this was notjust spying, just collecting intelligence, that is something that happens normally, but that they were considering, particularly that one individual, sabotage. carrying out some sort of explosion or fire at one of those facilities. i think thatis one of those facilities. i think that is what makes this particularly different from the run—of—the—mill espionage cases which we have seen many of in recent years including in germany. many of in recent years including in german . ., ., ., germany. gordon, tell me more about the military facility, _ germany. gordon, tell me more about the military facility, why _ germany. gordon, tell me more about the military facility, why now? - germany. gordon, tell me more about the military facility, why now? why . the military facility, why now? why germany? the military facility, why now? why german ? ~ , . ., ., ,
