Bundeswehr Raises Threat Level to 'Serious' Over Russian Sabotage Risk

Russia has explicitly escalated its hybrid warfare against Germany, moving from covert operations to direct deterrence messaging, as evidenced by a Kremlin warning of further sabotage. Germany's military has responded by elevating its internal threat assessment to 'Significant' and 'Serious' for the first time, reflecting heightened concerns over Russian sabotage on home soil. The attribution of specific incidents to Russia remains largely implied rather than explicitly confirmed by German authorities.
