Von der Leyen: EU Under Attack by ‘Dangerous Hybrid Warfare’

A significant escalation in aerial threats is facing the European Union, characterized as a ‘new and dangerous hybrid warfare.’ This warning comes amid a series of concerning incidents observed across European territories. Recent violations of airspace, including by MiG fighter jets in Estonia, and suspicious drone surveillance over key infrastructure in countries like Belgium, Poland, Romania, Denmark, and Germany, are indicative of a broader, coordinated campaign. Officials believe these actions are strategically intended to disrupt EU stability, challenge its internal cohesion, and weaken its commitment to supporting Ukraine. The focus is now on understanding and countering these sophisticated hybrid threats.
