💨 Abstract

A Czech court sentenced Andrés Alfonso de la Hoz de la Cruz, a Colombian national, to eight years in prison for an arson attack on three public buses in Prague and planning another attack. The court linked the case to Russian involvement, noting the defendant received orders via Telegram. Czech officials suspect this is part of Russia's hybrid war efforts against the country, which strongly supports Ukraine. The defendant recorded the incident and fled, with local workers extinguishing the fire.
