Denmark Claims Russia is Planning Sabotage Against Its Defense Industry
- On Thursday, Denmark's national security service, PET, revealed that Russia is recruiting Danish citizens to help plan sabotage against domestic defense firms with ties to Ukraine.
- "Russia is planning and carrying out acts of sabotage against defense companies," Emil Gresholm, head of PET counterintelligence, said, with Russian intelligence services actively preparing sabotage directed at the Danish defense industry.
- Russian agencies used social media and gaming platforms to recruit Danes for tasks including photographing infrastructure and companies, which could facilitate future sabotage operations, Gresholm said.
- Gresholm stressed that assisting Russian intelligence services is "extremely serious," whether citizens act deliberately or unwittingly, as the country faces heightened sabotage risks.
- Amid broader European concerns regarding hybrid warfare, a recent drone incident at Leipzig and Halle Airport in Germany prompted calls for new sanctions, though Moscow has denied any involvement in sabotage.
