Danish military intelligence (FE) assesses that Russia could conduct limited military attacks against a NATO country bordering Russia, with a low but growing risk, while a full invasion remains unlikely but not excluded. This marks a notable shift in official threat assessment, though it is based on inference and strategic analysis rather than specific intelligence. The assessment underscores heightened NATO-Russia tensions and may influence alliance force posture.

Russia Intensifies Hybrid Attacks on Europe; NATO Escalation Risk Elevated
Multiple European intelligence agencies, including Danish military intelligence (FE), assess that Russia has intensified hybrid attacks against European targets in recent months and is likely to escalate these activities further within months. While a full conventional invasion of a NATO country remains unlikely, the risk of limited military attacks against bordering NATO states is assessed as low but growing. This marks a notable shift in official threat assessments, indicating a more aggressive and coordinated Russian hybrid campaign.
