After suspected sabotage
Security measures increased in German barracks
In response to reports of possible intruders, the German army has stepped up security measures in its barracks. The background to this is the sensational reports in recent days of attempts to sabotage the drinking water supply.
A spokeswoman for the Territorial Command in Berlin said that the nationwide response has been to increase checks, step up patrols, check fences, close off some areas and raise awareness. The measures would be adapted to the respective situation.
Close loopholes, more patrols at night
According to Der Spiegel, the barracks have been instructed to meticulously check the outer fences of all facilities for loopholes. There should also be more patrols, especially at night. The superiors have sensitized their soldiers to watch out for unauthorized persons in the security areas and to report any suspicious cases immediately.
The lowest of four security levels, level "Alpha", still applies to Bundeswehr facilities, said the spokeswoman. Last week, the Bundeswehr cleared up a suspicion of sabotage to the drinking water supply at the Cologne-Wahn air force barracks.
