https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Russian_sabotage_operations_in_Europe has a decent overview.
Except.. none of these are proven, or even have any examinable evidence.
Most of them are "suspicions" and the others are just unilateral declarations by like, the UK police, which you can't exactly take at face value.
i bet the russians are sabotaging the secret chinese police stations!
Do you really think Western intelligence officials would just lie about stuff like that
There were a bunch of train derailments in Spain a couple years ago that were immediately blamed on Russia.
An investigation later revealed that "local radio enthusiasts" were responsible, and the headline of the article admitting so still made it seem like Russia was to blame.^[https://www.euronews.com/2023/08/31/is-russian-sabotage-behind-20-recent-train-accidents-in-poland]
wasnt it the same story with the power outage in spain? i think there's a pattern here.
