Hybrid threats and free elections

Hybrid threats are actions planned and executed with the intent to harm or destabilise states, organisations, and institutions. These actions often occur both openly and covertly, using a combination of military and non-military methods. Examples include information influence operations, cyberattacks, economic pressure, political interference, coercive diplomacy, and military threats. The most aggressive form of such activity is referred to as hybrid warfare.
