A large-scale power outage in southwest Berlin has led the German federal prosecutor’s office to open an investigation on suspicion of sabotage and membership in a terrorist organisation. The incident, which occurred Saturday on a bridge near a power plant, left nearly 45,000 households and 2,200 businesses without electricity, also impacting the district heating network powered by the same energy source.
