Who is behind Europe’s suspected hybrid attacks?

Italy has reported that civilian infrastructure across Europe is "under attack" following a series of incidents that have raised security concerns. Bomb hoaxes this week grounded flights and put airports on high alert, though no explosives were found in any of the cases.

The disruption extends beyond aviation, as hackers have targeted supermarket freezers in several countries, deliberately raising temperatures and spoiling food supplies. These combined incidents have sparked fears about a wider campaign of hybrid attacks targeting critical infrastructure.

Unanswered Questions

Authorities are investigating potential connections between these seemingly disparate attacks. The incidents raise pressing questions about who might be behind these threats and whether they represent a coordinated effort.

European nations now face the challenge of developing unified strategies to counter these hybrid threats, which combine physical disruption with cyber warfare tactics. The investigation continues as security services work to identify perpetrators and prevent further incidents.
