Examples cited include the CopyCop network impersonating European news outlets with AI-generated content, drone incursions near Estonia's border, and a Russian drone intercepted near Romania's Neptun Deep gas project in the Black Sea.

A fire broke out overnight at a ground station in Wola Krobowska, near Warsaw, that handles internet traffic for Poland and Ukraine, including Starlink connections. Polish deputy prime minister Krzysztof Gawkowski said the blaze at the facility, owned by state operator Exatel, appears to have been set deliberately, and police and internal security agents were sent to investigate. Gawkowski said the incident bears the hallmarks of Russian sabotage, though the investigation is ongoing.
