An explosive device was discovered near gas pipeline infrastructure in Serbia, according to statements from both Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban and Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic.

Orban announced that explosives had been found near gas infrastructure in Serbia, while Vucic confirmed that an explosive was located at a gas pipe near the Hungarian border. Both leaders disclosed the discovery through their respective official channels.

The incident involves critical energy infrastructure in the region, though specific details about the type of explosive device, its potential threat level, or the exact location along the pipeline network were not immediately provided by either official.

Neither leader indicated whether the device posed an active threat to gas supplies or operations, nor did they specify if any suspects had been identified in connection with the discovery. The timing and circumstances surrounding how the explosive was detected also remain unclear.

The discovery comes amid heightened concerns about energy security in Europe, particularly regarding gas pipeline infrastructure. Both Hungary and Serbia rely on pipeline networks for their energy supplies, making such infrastructure strategically important for regional energy security.
