Russia uses criminal gangs to sabotage European arms factories supplying Ukraine

Russia has launched a new wave of covert attacks on European arms factories supplying Ukraine, recruiting local criminal gang members to carry out the sabotage, according to Western intelligence sources cited by Britain's The Telegraph. Moscow is using a "plausible deniability" tactic to avoid direct responsibility for the operations. The campaign is also designed to test the cohesion and resolve of the NATO alliance.
