I gave DW my reactions to Germany’s recent announcements. Here’s five highlights: 📺“We're already at war. Unfortunately we're still calling it hybrid war, but we're being attacked, by Russia.” 1/5🧵 https://t.co/Liqo9dgmP8 #Germany #HybridWar #Russia #DE #RU
Russia’s attempted drone attack at Leipzig airport is part of a clear trend. I stand in full solidarity with Germany, and with all Member States affected by Russia’s reckless and increasingly frequent hybrid attacks. #Russia #HybridWarfare #SolidarityWithGermany #RU #DE
Russia probes, escalates, prepares Forget the word hybrid war. It was invented to give Russia room. Germany today named Russia responsible for the explosive drone found at Leipzig airport. The device was fixed to the wing of a cargo aircraft. Had it detonated in flight, we https://t.co/CeNjzuoptT #Russia #DroneThreat #HybridWar #RU #DE
Luxembourg stands in full solidarity with its neighbor, EU partner and NATO ally Germany. The Leipzig incident is another example of Russia’s hybrid warfare against Europe and the values it stands for. It seeks to erode Europe’s unity, undermine our resolve and weaken our #Solidarity #HybridWarfare #EuropeUnited #LU #DE #RU #EU
Romania stands in solidarity with Germany in the face of Russia’s reckless and irresponsible attack in Leipzig. This attack is part of a persistent and dangerous hybrid campaign perpetrated by Russia against EU and NATO countries in clear violation of international law. #SolidarityWithGermany #StandAgainstRussia #HybridWarfare #RO #DE #RU
What's happening in Germany before that crucial election this Sunday is open intimidation and constant attacks that could destroy important infrastructure. Hard to call it a "hybrid warfare" anymore. #GermanyElection #HybridWarfare #Intimidation #DE
Russia’s hybrid war against Europe is escalating fast. A suspected Russian explosive drone was found deep inside Romania. Drones entered Estonian airspace, scrambling NATO jets. In eastern Germany, homemade rockets targeted a major power plant. All this in just one day. #HybridWar #Russia #NATO #RU #RO #EE #DE
The recent intensification of Russia’s hybrid warfare against Europe has already shown itself to be counterproductive, said Norbert Röttgen, a prominent lawmaker from the governing CDU party. “It is becoming increasingly clear to Germans that Russia is also a threat to them, and #HybridWarfare #RussiaThreat #Germany #RU #DE #EU
Moscow is increasingly betting on hybrid warfare—a loose term that includes a recent drone incidentinvolving a Ukrainian cargo plane at Germany’s Leipzig/Halle airport, cyberattacks that disrupted Polish rail services and a series of explosions that struck European defense #HybridWarfare #Cyberattacks #Ukraine #RU #UA #DE #PL #EU

Ein bisschen mehr Klarheit als "fremde Mächte" und "Zusammenhänge" und "Aktivitäten" sollten Innenminister und Sicherheitsbehörden schon in die öffentliche Debatte zu hybriden Angriffen auf Deutschland bringen, oder? #HybridWar #Sicherheit #Politik
Today, Romania destroyed a naval drone carrying explosives near its Neptun Deep platform in the Black Sea. An escalating campaign of threats is underway, unsettling our citizens and seeking to divide our Union. This is hybrid warfare.

Gejagt von russischen Mördern, die ihn hier in Deutschland mit #Nowitschok vergiften wollen: @StefanThumann steht exponiert wie niemand von uns, die wir schreiben und Videos teilen, an vorderster Front im hybriden Krieg von #Putin und seinem TerrorStaat. Meinen höchsten Respekt! https://t.co/bUaCC6UJA8 #Putin #HybridWar #Nowitschok
What happens when nobody admits that hybrid war IS war? An explosive drone flew into a Ukrainian cargo plane at Leipzig airport and lay on the tarmac for 4hrs until a bus driver found it.

I call on Austrian and Israeli authorities to investigate urgently whether hostile foreign actors were involved in the disappearance of two Israeli tourists in Vienna. Given Russia’s documented use of hybrid operations across Europe, possible Russian involvement must be examined #Vienna #IsraeliTourists #HybridWarfare #AT #IL #RU
I accuse Russia of deliberately fueling and exploiting the catastrophic fires in Montenegro as part of its hybrid war against Europe. Montenegro is a NATO member and a strategic target for Russian destabilization. If there is evidence of deliberate arson, sabotage, #Montenegro #HybridWar #Russia #RU #ME #EU
In these increasingly confrontational times, weaponized migration should be treated as a form of hybrid warfare. Europe needs a common mechanism for temporarily closing its external borders when operations like the one in Ceuta occur. Malign actors are exploiting migration to https://t.co/M5I0DcIjB8 #HybridWarfare #MigrationCrisis #BorderSecurity #ES #EU
🔥 I ACCUSE RUSSIA OF ARSON IN FRANCE I accuse Putin’s Russia of conducting or sponsoring acts of arson and sabotage in France as part of its wider hybrid war against Europe. Russia has already been linked to sabotage, espionage, cyberattacks and destabilisation operations https://t.co/ur6wIq7cpJ #Russia #Arson #HybridWar #RU #FR
