Russia Intensifies Hybrid Attacks on Europe; NATO Escalation Risk Elevated
Multiple European intelligence agencies, including Danish military intelligence (FE), assess that Russia has intensified hybrid attacks against European targets in recent months and is likely to escalate these activities further within months. While a full conventional invasion of a NATO country remains unlikely, the risk of limited military attacks against bordering NATO states is assessed as low but growing. This marks a notable shift in official threat assessments, indicating a more aggressive and coordinated Russian hybrid campaign.
