60-Second Summary

Czech intelligence (BIS) reports Russia's ongoing influence operations within the country, aiming to weaken Western cohesion, spread fear, and undermine public trust. These operations, often involving unwitting agents, include past attacks like the 2014 Vrbětice warehouse explosion and a foiled bus depot arson. The Russian Orthodox Church in Czechia is cited as a tool for Kremlin influence. BIS claims to have thwarted multiple similar attacks.
