US Bases in Europe Put on High Alert Amid Threats
US military bases in Europe have been placed on high alert following reports of alleged sabotage attacks against American personnel and facilities by "Russia-backed actors." CNN has reported this information, citing several sources.
Security measures were strengthened last week, marking the first time in a decade. According to US intelligence data, Russia is believed to have included American bases and military personnel as potential targets for attacks by its agents.
The network also quoted a "senior NATO official" noting that the alliance has significantly increased the sharing of intelligence data in Europe regarding what has been described as a "covert Russian sabotage campaign," which is reportedly becoming more brazen and aggressive against the backdrop of elections in the West. He believes this presents a significant opportunity for Russia to attempt to undermine public support for Ukraine.
