Denmark to summon Russian ambassador over state-linked cyberattacks on water and election sites.

Denmark plans to summon the Russian ambassador over cyberattacks linked to Moscow, accusing pro-Russian groups Z-Pentest and NoName057—tied to the Russian state—of targeting a 2024 water utility in Køge, causing burst pipes, and launching DDoS attacks on election-related websites ahead of November’s local and regional polls. The Danish Defense Intelligence Service said the attacks were part of Russia’s hybrid warfare strategy to destabilize nations supporting Ukraine. While damage was limited, officials acknowledged vulnerabilities in critical infrastructure and pledged to strengthen cyber defenses, including launching a new surveillance network and operations center.
