EU foreign policy chief Kaja Kallas says Russian hybrid attacks endanger lives across Europe

On October 5, 2026, EU foreign policy chief Kaja Kallas said Russia is putting lives at risk across Europe with hybrid attacks, during a briefing with Moldovan Prime Minister Vasile Tofan in Brussels. She cited recent airspace violations by Russian missiles and drones in Moldova. This follows Russia's September 30 air campaign against Ukraine's energy grid, and German Chancellor Friedrich Merz's warning about increased hybrid attacks. Moscow has denied Western accusations of such activities.
