Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic told Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban by phone that explosives were found near a gas pipeline that carries Russian gas from Serbia to Hungary.
"Our units found high-powered explosives and detonators,” Vucic wrote on Instagram*, after briefing Orban on the military and police investigations.
Inspecting a building site later on Sunday, he told journalists that the explosives were found in the autonomous Vojvodina province in northern Serbia, near the Hungarian border.
The bomb was found near the main pipeline that delivers Russian gas from the TurkStream network to Serbia and Hungary.
Viktor Orban announced that he will convene a defense council meeting on Sunday afternoon following the discovery of explosives near a gas pipeline in Serbia that supplies Russian gas to Hungary.
"Serbian authorities have discovered a powerful explosive device and the means to detonate it at a critical gas infrastructure facility connecting Serbia and Hungary. An investigation is underway. I have convened an emergency meeting of the defense council this afternoon," Orban said.
