Two foreign contractors were arrested Tuesday in a sweeping joint European police operation for allegedly sabotaging multiple brand-new German warships while working inside one of the country’s most storied military shipyards.

The arrests, coordinated between German, Romanian, Greek, and EU police agencies through Eurojust, came after what prosecutors say was a string of sabotage acts carried out last year against “several” warships under construction or refit.
