European intelligence: Russia intensifies assassination plots against defense executives supplying Ukraine
Five European intelligence services have warned executives of European defense companies that Russia is escalating efforts to assassinate them, the Financial Times reported. Targets include heads of prime contractors and small drone-component firms. Russia's GRU is said to be adapting its methods by cooperating with organized crime groups and cross-border agent networks, and Germany's domestic intelligence chief told lawmakers Moscow is planning acts of violence against individuals using state or state-controlled actors.
