US and Europe express concern over Russia's hybrid warfare following Ukraine's missile strike

firstpost.com

The U.S. and Europe are increasingly worried about Russia's hybrid warfare tactics after Ukraine used U.S.-made ATACMS missiles to strike targets inside Russia. This marks a significant change in the conflict, raising fears of a broader escalation. The Biden administration recently lifted restrictions on Ukraine's use of these missiles, allowing strikes on a Russian ammunition depot. In response, Russian officials have threatened retaliation, warning that such actions could lead to direct conflict with the West. Concerns are growing that Russia may expand its hybrid warfare tactics beyond Ukraine, potentially targeting critical infrastructure in Europe and supporting adversaries in the Middle East. NATO and European officials are discussing measures to enhance security against these threats.
