The Wall Street Journal is reporting Russia was behind a plot to start fires aboard cargo and passenger aircraft heading from Europe to Canada and the U.S. The publication said explosions at DHL hubs in Leipzig, Germany and Birmingham, U.K. in July were dress rehearsals for the plot, which was apparently aimed at bringing down the aircraft. Reuters reported the WSJ (subscription required) cited Western security officials as its sources.
