Russia, Bild reports, has a plan to attack NATO's eastern flank after a counteroffensive in Ukraine
La Bild: “Moscow has had a secret plan to attack NATO since July”
Russia reportedly has a plan to attack NATO's eastern flank after a successful counteroffensive in Ukraine and the repulsion of the Ukrainian army by June. This is what Bild reports, which has obtained a “secret document” prepared by the German armed forces in this regard. The classified document states that Russia may launch “cyber attacks and other forms of hybrid warfare” against the Baltics in July. Some unspecified “clashes” would follow, which Moscow would use as a pretext to start large-scale military exercises on its territory and in Belarus, the German newspaper claims, citing the military document.
