Midnight explosions: 15 cases so far this year, mostly foreign criminal groups

In Slovenia, police have investigated 15 attacks on ATMs this year by mid-June, with six attempts failing. Most perpetrators are foreign members of criminal organizations. Recent incidents include an explosion at a Brezovica ATM, causing significant damage, and another in Bertoki during June, where an explosive device was placed on an ATM. The attack caused extensive damage to the store’s windows and part of the wall, with the ATM mask being thrown nearly 30 meters away. Authorities are investigating these cases, though suspects remain unidentified. Similar incidents occurred in other areas like Podgrada, Ilirska Bistrica, and Pobegi. According to the General Police Directorate (GPU), attacks on ATMs have increased over recent years, with various methods used, including classic break-ins, explosives, and gas explosions.
