Hybrid Warfare: Denmark on High Alert
Denmark is on alert after suspected sabotage threats against its armed forces. Drone incursions led to airport closures, signaling what is deemed a hybrid attack by Russia. Authorities caution that while no direct military threat exists, Russia's aggressive tactics aim to impose pressure without crossing into armed conflict.
Denmark is currently facing a potential threat of sabotage against its armed forces, according to Thomas Ahrenkiel, Director of the Danish Defence Intelligence Service.
The nation recently experienced drone incursions that forced the temporary closure of six military and civilian airports. Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen described the situation as a hybrid attack, hinting at Russian involvement.
Denmark's intelligence service suggests that Russia is engaging in hybrid warfare against Denmark and the West by employing military tactics designed to exert pressure without initiating open conflict. Despite the aggressive posture, Danish Defence Minister Troels Lund Poulsen assured there is no direct military threat to the country.
