A quick reminder that 1.5 percentage points of the Nato countries’ 5% GDP military spending target is earmarked for areas beyond traditional military defense such as arson attacks, cyber attacks, and the like.

Just 2 days ago there were two articles posted in this community. One called Russian propaganda group Storm-1516 is using identities of real journalists to target Moldova, Armenia, and France and the other by AP news titled Intelligence officials worry a sabotage campaign blamed on Russia is growing more dangerous which was about a fire at a warehouse in east London storing equipment for Ukraine, plotted by Russian linked to the secret service. They wrote the following: “The fire is one of more than 70 incidents linked to Russia that The Associated Press has documented since Moscow’s invasion of Ukraine in February 2022”. I earlier wrote comments on posts some of those ‘incidents’, this is what I commented below the two posted articles i linked above:

3 days ago someone posted a link to an article by The Insider titled Polish researchers trace Baltic GPS disruptions to Russian military sites in Kaliningrad about finding the source of navigational system failures (by either spoofing or jamming coordinates) on thousands of aircraft and ships in the baltic sea and the airspace of the surrounding countries.

5 days ago someone posted link to an article by united24media titled Russian Saboteurs Reportedly Torch German Military Trucks in Erfurt in Brazen Attack on NATO Soil. I thought it’d be nice to copy my comment on that post.

Yesterday someone posted a link to an article in The Sun, it’s headline was Britain’s migrant crisis being fuelled by Putin’s Russia and other hostile states in secret plot to destabilise UK; I feel I might just as well copy and paste my comment to that post:

The amount of shit Russia pulls without getting any kind repercussion truly astonishes me.
