Germany at risk of 'violent conflict' with Russia, intelligence chief warns
In short:
The head of Germany's federal intelligence service, Martin Jaeger, says the country could enter a "violent conflict" with Russia due to the Kremlin's "shadow war" with European democracies.
Germany has blamed Russia for increasingly brazen incidents on its soil, including an attempted drone attack on Leipzig airport in August.
The warning from a German intelligence chief comes as Russia carries out strikes across Ukraine and on a Turkish civilian boat in the Black Sea.
