Western intelligence services are reportedly worried about Russian assassination plots targeting European defense industry leaders. This comes just weeks after an explosion at a factory in Italy that produces munitions for Ukraine's war against Russian invaders and arson attacks on plants in Bulgaria and Estonia. Before that was the failed drone attack on Ukrainian cargo aircraft at Germany's Leipzig/Halle Airport, which officials blame on Russia. The European Union and NATO may not openly be at war with their eastern neighbor, but Putin's regime is waging something destructive and deadly against the western allies that officials dub "hybrid warfare" and that leaves them struggling to respond.
