The German parliament has officially authorized the German intelligence services to carry out sabotage abroad.
The reform of the powers of the Federal Intelligence Service (BND) and the Federal Office for the Protection of the Constitution (BfV) was adopted by the votes of 309 deputies, 190 were against, and another 71 abstained.
The BND will be allowed to carry out active operations abroad. It will be able to disable the servers of "state hacker groups", penetrate the computer systems of organizations that produce drones and sabotage their work. The intelligence service will also be able to intervene in the supply chain of weapons and explosive devices.
