European Union heightens security stance following sabotage warnings and Leipzig incident

European Union officials have heightened security alerts following potential hybrid threats and sabotage concerns across member states. European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen stated the bloc "will not tolerate attacks on EU soil" after German investigators linked two suspects—a Russian national holding a Latvian passport and a Belarusian with Russian documentation—to explosive devices uncovered at Leipzig airport. Italian security officials confirmed the Belarusian suspect held an Italian Schengen visa but had not transited through Italy. Meanwhile, Danish intelligence services warned that Moscow could target domestic industrial facilities. Concurrently, Russia launched a fresh campaign against Ukraine's energy network following Ukrainian drone strikes on Russian petroleum facilities.
