Russian Hybrid Attacks Spark Panic Over American Power Grid

Clear Facts

• Russian-linked cyberattacks have targeted refrigeration systems at supermarkets across Europe and at six U.S. military commissaries since August.
• Claims that the United States is about to launch a nuclear strike on Iran are false and contradict current U.S. Central Command posture.
• FEMA continues to recommend basic emergency preparedness for power outages without issuing new urgent national warnings.

The panic buying of toilet paper and water that swept social media in recent days was not triggered by any new government alert.

It followed viral claims made by Tucker Carlson suggesting the United States might be days away from a nuclear strike on Iran.

Those claims are not supported by any evidence.

U.S. Central Command maintains a defensive posture around the Strait of Hormuz focused on keeping oil lanes open.

“Employing a weapon with a nuclear yield would break what is called the nuclear taboo,” the analysis states.

Russia has expanded its hybrid warfare operations targeting food supply chains in Western democracies.

Supermarket freezers in at least ten European countries were hacked this week, with temperatures pushed above 122 degrees Fahrenheit.

“This is the same modus operandi deployed in October against French supermarkets,” reports confirm.

Six U.S. military commissaries also experienced refrigeration malfunctions in late August.

Facilities affected include Fort Huachuca in Arizona and Travis Air Force Base in California.

“All of these instances bear the fingerprints of Russian hybrid warfare.”

The U.S. government issued an advisory this week urging the industrial refrigeration sector to strengthen defenses.

FEMA has long advised Americans to keep a few days of supplies on hand for natural disasters.

“It is not a reason to become a prepper, and certainly not a reason to panic.”

The Pentagon has launched the FORTRESS program requiring bases to operate independently for 90 days.

This is described as wise preparation, not an invitation for public alarm.
