Romanian authorities detained a 40-year-old Russian citizen suspected of scouting military bases used by NATO allies as well as critical infrastructure, as part of an alleged sabotage plot, according to Romanian outlet Digi24. The arrest adds to a growing pattern of alleged Russian sabotage and espionage activity targeting NATO members and countries supporting Ukraine. The case follows similar recent incidents in Germany and elsewhere involving suspected sabotage of infrastructure linked to the war, reflecting heightened concerns among European security services about Russian hybrid warfare operations on NATO territory.
