瑞典民防大臣卡尔-奥斯卡·伯林周三在斯德哥尔摩举行的新闻发布会上表示,俄罗斯情报机构目前正寻求通过网络攻击破坏欧洲的基础设施,而不仅仅是用过量流量冲击网站。伯林称:“在过去的一年里,俄罗斯的方法发生了转变。曾经实施拒绝服务攻击的亲俄组织,现在正尝试针对欧洲组织发动破坏性的网络攻击。”
伯林的声明强调了欧洲官员对关键系统(包括发电厂和水处理厂)易受俄罗斯特工干扰的担忧日益加剧。波兰总理唐纳德·图斯克今年早些时候表示,波兰在2025年12月击退了俄罗斯情报机构针对两座发电厂和可再生能源设施的一波网络攻击。与波兰一样,北欧国家也是乌克兰的坚定支持者,这使它们成为俄罗斯侵略的潜在目标。
伯林透露,2025年春季,一家“瑞典西部的热力厂”曾被一个与俄罗斯情报机构有关的组织盯上。伯林表示,这次攻击已被工厂的安全系统挫败,他拒绝提供更多细节。挪威和丹麦也出现了类似的企图。这位大臣表示:“综上所述,这指向了一种朝着更危险、更鲁莽行为的转变,这可能会对社会产生破坏性影响。”
Russia’s intelligence services are now seeking to damage European infrastructure with cyber attacks rather than merely overwhelm websites with excess traffic, Swedish Civil Defense Minister Carl-Oskar Bohlin said.
“Over the past year, Russia’s methods have shifted,” Bohlin said during a news conference in Stockholm on Wednesday. “Pro-Russian groups that once carried out denial-of-service attacks are now attempting destructive cyber attacks against organizations in Europe.”
Bohlin’s statement underscores European officials’ growing concern about the vulnerability of critical systems including power plants and water treatment works to disruption by Russian operatives.
Poland fought off a wave of cyber attacks by Russian intelligence agencies in December 2025 targeting two power plants and renewable energy facilities, Prime Minister Donald Tusk said earlier this year. Like Poland, the Nordic states are staunch supporters of Kyiv making them potential targets of aggression by Russia, which is waging full-scale war against Ukraine.
Bohlin said “a heating plant in Western Sweden” had been targeted by a group with links to Russian intelligence in spring 2025. The attack had been thwarted by security systems at the plant, Bohlin said, declining to provide further details.
Norway and Denmark had seen similar attempts, he said.
“Taken together, this points to a change toward riskier and more reckless behavior which could potentially lead to damaging effects for society,” the minister said.
