>After an arson attack on a cable shaft in [Berlin-Charlottenburg](https://www.berliner-zeitung.de/topics/charlottenburg-wilmersdorf) on Friday night, there will be restrictions in long-distance, regional and S-Bahn traffic until next week. “Because several cables are affected, the repair work will continue over the weekend,” the railway had initially announced. Train traffic is expected to be restricted until the beginning of next week.

>On Friday evening, the railway then gave a concrete date: Until Tuesday, August 6, there would be disruptions and cancellations. The Ringbahn will remain interrupted between Beusselstraße and Westend. Passengers would be asked to switch to the BVG. The long-distance line between the main station and Spandau is partially impassable and train traffic is affected.

>Left-wing extremists published a letter on the Internet on Friday afternoon in which they claimed responsibility for the arson attack. “If the railway comes to a standstill, the finely timed processes of this system of exploitation and destruction are interrupted and slowed down,” it says. This week there were “fire attacks on Deutsche Bahn infrastructure” in Bremen, Hamburg and Berlin. In the claim of responsibility, Deutsche Bahn is accused of participating in “global environmental destruction and colonial projects” and of being a “central component of military infrastructure” for the Bundeswehr and NATO.

>The arson attack on the railway line caused chaos on Friday morning. Long-distance trains were rerouted via the northern outer ring to Berlin-Gesundbrunnen and the main station. In regional transport, trains were also diverted, were delayed or stops were not served.
