The frequency of so-called hybrid attacks is increasing in Europe and Russia is seen as the prime suspect. Here’s what to know (from November)

Russia is waging two wars. The first is the live-fire conflict in Ukraine, the second a more covert affair targeting countries that support the government in Kyiv. The toolkit ranges from state-on-state cyberattacks, disinformation and propaganda, to more visible tactics such as arson, sabotage and airspace incursions.
