Between 1982 and 1985, a group of unidentified attackers carried out a series of brutal attacks on supermarkets in Belgium's Brabant province, killing 28 people and wounding 22. The attacks made no economic sense — the robbers took trivial sums while executing shoppers with military precision. Gendarme patrols conveniently missed the attacks despite passing every 20 minutes. BBC investigations linked the attacks to NATO's Belgian stay-behind network (SDRA8). The Belgian Gendarmerie was subsequently abolished. The case remains officially unsolved after 40+ years.

“The Brabant attacks were carried out with military precision by operatives connected to Belgium's stay-behind network as part of a destabilization campaign.”
