Denmark has reported Russian sabotage against companies assisting Ukraine
Denmark has stated that Russia is planning acts of sabotage against companies that supply goods to Ukraine.
This was reported by the Danish Security and Intelligence Service (PET), according to Censor.NET.
Russia is planning acts of sabotage against companies with links to Ukraine
According to Danish intelligence, Russian security services are actively preparing acts of sabotage against Denmark’s defence industry. Particular attention is being paid to companies involved in providing military aid to Ukraine.
"The main aim is to halt specific deliveries to the Ukrainian defence forces," said Emil Gresholm, head of PET’s counter-intelligence unit.
According to him, the Russian security services are also attempting to recruit ordinary Danish citizens via social media and gaming platforms. They may be instructed to take photographs of businesses or infrastructure facilities, as well as to gather information about access to them and security measures.
Danish intelligence warns of a growing threat
The PET noted that Russia is increasingly using hybrid methods against European countries.
"We can see that Danish companies are also the targets of specific Russian sabotage plans, and that the Russian security services are actively preparing such operations against Denmark’s defence industry," emphasised Gresholm.
At the same time, PET has not yet reported any specific cases of physical sabotage carried out by Russia on Danish territory. Danish intelligence has called on defence industry companies to step up their security measures.
