Horror in Europe | Fighter Jets Scramble | Bomb Scares Hit 10 Planes | GRAVITAS

Published

on

By



Europe is facing a terrifying wave of hybrid disruption. After supermarket freezers were hacked across ten nations including Belgium, Sweden and Luxembourg, forcing stores to destroy food, at least seven European flights in a single day have been hit with bomb threats. Some flights were diverted and escorted by fighter jets. Incidents were reported in France, Spain and Italy. Airports were briefly shut, hundreds of passengers evacuated, and even a cruise ship was targeted. No explosives have been found and no group has claimed responsibility. Are these low cost, deniable attacks a coordinated campaign to paralyse Europe’s food supply and air travel?
