Police in the Czech Republic have arrested three suspects after a fire gutted a warehouse belonging to a company that supplies autonomous drones to Ukraine. The blaze in the city of Pardubis, about 100 kilometers east of Prague, is being probed as arson tied to terrorism with no injuries, reported. Two suspects were picked up in the Czech Republic, while the third was nabbed in neighboring Slovakia, where authorities are pushing for extradition. The group includes Czech and United States Nationals, facing charges of terrorist attack and involvement in a terrorist organization. The targeted firm, LPP Holding, confirmed the incident in his aiding investigators, noting no weapons were stored in the building. Arms companies across the country have ramped up security in response to the event. This comes as LPP develops drone tech for Ukraine's defense against the Russian invasion, so a planned training center with partners fell through.
