Russia has sharply increased its espionage activity in Germany, according to the German military counterintelligence service (MAD), as reported by Deutsche Welle.

The agency has recorded a significant rise in attempts at espionage and sabotage by Russian intelligence services.

“We are seeing a sharp increase in espionage and hybrid operations. The actions have become more aggressive,” said MAD President Martina Rosenberg.

She noted that Russian intelligence is operating based on Cold War tactics. Alarming incidents include surveillance of military sites and critical infrastructure, sabotage of supply routes, cyberattacks, and the use of high-tech, jamming-resistant drones. Targeted disinformation is also frequently employed.

According to dpa, the number of suspicious cases has nearly doubled over the past year. Russian agents are increasingly entering Germany via third countries. At particular risk of recruitment are individuals of Russian descent, recent immigrants, dual citizens, and those with ties to Russia. Many are recruited during trips to Russia or its allied states.
