The X-Com Files / Red Dawn HQ vents warfare

Potential spoil ahead?

I've been met with a new and unexpected threat when doing Red Dawn HQ after installing the new version of the mod. It seems that for some reason ennemies are able to throw explosives from the level below, I hear hear the throwing sound during enemy turn and my soldiers exploding. At first I thought those were land mines but it seems to stop when they lose vision on me (plus the throwing sounds shouldn't happen without reason).
Has anyone experienced this issue lately? Apologies if this was already posted, I did a quick research but couldn't find anything

Here are some screenshots, the place my soldiers died matches the vents below. I wanted to try throwing explosives from the vents to test but they surrendered before I completely forgot after cleaning up the vents

I did manage to capture a keeper from a base but I'm unable to research yet, shooting as many ships as I can hoping to get the right unit

Would anyone know if I'm waiting for a specific mission or if I need a bit of luck and hope a ship with Ethereal spawns (Attached is my current save)
