Vladimir Putin's Russia is increasingly implicated in acts of sabotage across Europe, prompting urgent calls for a robust Western response. Recent incidents, such as the foiled assassination plot against Rheinmetall boss Armin Papperger and a series of arson attacks, have raised alarms among EU security officials. Experts suggest that Russia is employing gangs of thugs and organized crime members for these acts, which target critical infrastructure like pipelines and railways. With tensions escalating, Western nations face a dilemma in attributing these attacks to Russia without risking further escalation or business interests.
In parallel, residents of northern Israel are expressing frustration over the perceived lack of military response to ongoing threats in their region, particularly in light of recent UAV attacks in Tel Aviv and retaliatory actions in Yemen. Local leaders are demanding that the Israeli government prioritize security in the north, emphasizing the need for a strong deterrent against missile attacks from neighboring regions. The sentiment among northern residents is one of urgency, as they seek immediate action to restore their sense of safety.
