The call stands as issued — no revisions.
What would overturn it
A German government announcement of an expulsion, asset freeze, or sanctions listing tied to the Leipzig plot before September 12; a delay past that date, or an announcement limited to rhetoric with no concrete measure, flips this false.

As logged at issue
Likely that Germany announces at least one concrete measure against Russia — a diplomat expulsion, an asset freeze, or a named sanctions listing — over the Leipzig drone plot within 14 days (by September 12) — multiple German outlets citing officials describe an announcement being prepared for the week of September 1, timed to the EU foreign ministers' meeting; a further delay past September 12 with no announcement, or an announcement limited to rhetoric with no concrete measure, would flip this false.
