The Czech Republic’s transport minister warns of Russia’s attempts to disrupt European rail networks, suspected to be part of a campaign to destabilize the EU. Thousands of hacking attempts, including attacks on signalling systems, have been made since Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. While the Czech Republic has managed to defend against these attacks, concerns remain about potential accidents. Similar attacks have targeted railway companies in Latvia, Lithuania, Romania, and Estonia. Prague is taking measures to strengthen cybersecurity and limit foreign involvement in critical infrastructure projects, advocating for more EU funding for transport infrastructure to address increasing demand and alleviate strain on conventional operators.
