German climate activist arrested; planned 150 sabotage attacks on power infrastructure

German authorities arrested Daniel V., a 48-year-old climate activist, near the Dutch border after a manhunt. Interior Minister Herbert Reul revealed the suspect planned over 150 sabotage actions, including attacks on power lines near coal-fired plants in North Rhine-Westphalia and neighboring countries. The case signals an escalation in domestic extremist tactics targeting critical energy infrastructure, though the operational capability and network remain under investigation.
