PARIS, Sept 18 (Reuters) - Russia has targeted France with hybrid attacks in the past few weeks, President Emmanuel Macron said on Friday, promising a response.

“In recent weeks, the threat — particularly the Russian hybrid threat — facing Europeans and France has intensified,” Macron told reporters after meeting in Paris with political party leaders to discuss international developments.

Interior Minister Laurent Nunez said on X that all relevant services would be mobilised.

“The goal is clear: to mobilise all state services and local stakeholders so as to be ready to face these new threats.”
