Ireland accuses Russia, without evidence, of a coordinated wave of false reports about the mining of airliners and other objects. This is reported by the "Times". Sources indicated that Russia could allegedly be behind the spate of bomb reports, as Ireland will host the European Political Community Summit and a meeting of heads of state and EU leaders in November. A diplomatic source believes that Russia allegedly chose Ireland as its target also because 75% of the transatlantic cables pass through or near its territorial waters. In addition, the country is home to many data centers owned by Google, Amazon and Microsoft. "The method of operation indicates Russian involvement. These incidents are related to each other and were coordinated in a way that indicates the involvement of a state entity," said an Irish intelligence source. However, the source did not provide any evidence of Russia's involvement in the incidents.
