EU spies: Russia campaign against NATO may be 'months, not years' away

Officials say Russia may intensify sabotage and false-flag attacks, while Ukraine’s drone strike on Moscow and region hit hundreds of targets.

  • European intelligence officials warned a Russian attack on NATO could occur in "months, not years," stoking fears of imminent conflict. Michal Koudelka, head of the Czech Republic's domestic spy agency , cautioned Moscow could attempt limited incursions or false-flag provocations.
  • Russia is intensifying sabotage campaigns across Europe targeting railway and defense infrastructure to sow panic. Thomas Nilsson, head of Sweden's military intelligence, called the discovery of an explosives-laden UAV at Leipzig airport a "gamechanger" for European security.
  • Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk warned Russia may soon conduct drone or missile attacks disguised as accidents against NATO-supporting countries. European authorities are advising 50 million residents to maintain 72 hours of emergency food, water, medicine, and cash.
  • Western intelligence officials believe President Putin is preparing a "stealth mobilisation" of 300,000 Russians following parliamentary elections, according to The Telegraph. After 1.5 million casualties in Ukraine, experts assess Russia remains focused on strategic objectives rather than serious negotiations.
  • In the UK, officials are updating their "war book" for the first time in decades amid reports the Pentagon may withdraw between 25,000 and 40,000 troops from Europe. President Donald Trump faces mounting speculation about escalating conflict in Iran after recent comments.
