Denmark's foreign office will summon the Russian ambassador after the DDIS publicly blamed Russia for cyberattacks on critical infrastructure. The move follows attribution of a destructive water-utility attack and pre-election DDoS assaults to Russian state-linked groups. It escalates the official response to cyber operations tied to Denmark's November local elections and support for Ukraine.
