‘We are under attack’: Italian defense minister accuses Russia of waging hybrid war

Posted on by Lone Candle

“Attacks include: accusations that a notorious Russian military intelligence hacking group targeted defense, transport and tech firms involved in helping Ukraine; arson attacks on depots containing equipment destined for Ukraine in Poland; Russian ally Belarus weaponizing migrants to destabilize Poland; drones of unknown origin buzzing airports across the continent; and Moscow being accused of undermining the presidential election in Romania.

Poland called a Sunday rail line explosion “sabotage” and on Tuesday blamed two Ukrainians working for Russia.

Globsec, a Prague-based think tank, calculated there were more than 110 acts of sabotage and attempted attacks carried out in Europe between January and July, mainly in Poland and France, by people with links to Russia.”
