Operațiune de sabotaj coordonată de Rusia în România. SRI: Un rus a fotografiat baze militare NATO și aeronava ucraineană Antonov

The Romanian Intelligence Service (SRI) has thwarted a Russian sabotage operation in Romania, involving a Russian citizen who was surveilled since February 2026. This individual was allegedly tasked with photographing military and strategic sites, including NATO bases and Ukrainian cargo planes. The investigation revealed that he was in contact with an intermediary for instructions on gathering sensitive military information. The SRI emphasized that this operation mirrors similar sabotage attempts by Russian entities in Europe. The Russian citizen, aged 40, is now facing charges for attempted diversion acts and will be presented for preventive arrest. The situation reflects a broader pattern of hybrid warfare by Russia against Europe, targeting military and defense industry sites.
