UK warns of rising Russian cyber and disinformation attacks targeting democracy and critical infrastructure.
Foreign Secretary Yvette Cooper warned the UK faces escalating cyber and disinformation attacks from Russia and other state actors, calling it a key front in the war against Ukraine.
She highlighted nearly 7.8 million cyber incidents last year, targeting critical sectors like the NHS and media, and stressed that foreign powers are using social media to manipulate public debate on issues like migration and climate change.
Speaking ahead of a Downing Street meeting with Ukrainian, German, and French leaders, Cooper emphasized the need for stronger defenses and international cooperation to counter hybrid threats.
She cautioned against foreign interference in democratic processes and pushed for a modernized security framework to address 21st-century challenges, amid concerns over a US-backed peace proposal that could compromise Ukraine’s sovereignty.
