French President Emmanuel Macron has ordered measures to protect France's critical infrastructure and defense industry sites from increasing Russian 'hybrid attacks,' according to reports from multiple sources. Speaking to the press after meeting with political party leaders, Macron emphasized that Russia's hybrid threat had 'intensified.'
The announcement came amid discussions about the international situation, including conflicts in the Middle East and Ukraine. Macron also mentioned plans to convene a G7 meeting focused on energy security, as fuel prices rise due to tensions in the region. While the exact nature of the Russian hybrid attacks was not detailed, the warnings highlight growing concerns about potential threats to France's security and energy systems.
Sources did not provide specific details about the measures being taken or the extent of the perceived threat. However, the statements reflect a broader concern about hybrid warfare tactics, which may include cyberattacks, disinformation, and other non-traditional forms of aggression.
