Estonia’s interior minister said Russian aggression in Europe should be treated
as state-supported terrorism, not merely “hybrid” attacks. European authorities
are investigating recent cyber incidents, including hacks of supermarket
refrigerated cabinets, amid a spate of sabotage, arson and other disruptive acts
that are believed to be linked to Russia. The minister warned these actions,
while short of outright military conflict, are ongoing and constitute direct
attacks on critical infrastructure and military or defense-related targets.
