EU vows response to Russian hybrid threats as airport sabotage suspects identified

European authorities remain on high alert following new developments in alleged Russian hybrid tactics across the continent. German investigators identified two suspects connected to explosive devices found at Leipzig airport: a Russian national possessing Latvian documentation and a Belarusian holding Russian papers. Security officials noted that although the Belarusian individual obtained an Italian Schengen visa, records indicate he did not transit through Italy.

Concurrently, Danish intelligence services warned that Moscow may target local industrial sectors with sabotage. Responding to the rising security threats, European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen stated that the bloc "will not tolerate attacks on EU territory" and remains prepared to act. On the front lines, Russia initiated a fresh campaign targeting Ukraine's power grid, while Ukrainian drone strikes continue to disrupt Russian petroleum refineries.
