- The incidents raise questions about a coordinated campaign.

## Summary

Italy says civilian infrastructure across Europe is “under attack” after a series of apparent false bomb threats disrupted aviation this week. The incidents, alongside cyberattacks on supermarket freezers, have fuelled concerns about a possible wider campaign of hybrid attacks and the ability of European countries to respond together.

The bomb threats led to grounded flights and heightened airport alerts, but searches found no explosives. Separately, hackers targeted supermarket freezers in several countries, raising temperatures and spoiling food. The report examines who may be behind the incidents and whether they are connected, with input from security and defence specialists.
