  "summary": "French President Emmanuel Macron has warned of Russian \"hybrid\" attacks as the country faces rising fuel costs and energy threats. According to France 24, Macron gathered the nation's major party presidential candidates at the presidential palace to address public anger, where he raised concerns about Russian \"hybrid\" attacks.\n\nThe threat of Russian attacks is also being felt in Ukraine, where regional authorities reported 11 people killed and at least 64 injured in Russian attacks over the past day, according to the Kyiv Independent. Ukrainian forces reportedly downed 138 out of 174 drones launched by Russia overnight.\n\nMacron's comments on Russian \"hybrid\" attacks come as France faces a crisis due to rising fuel costs, partly caused by the wars in Ukraine and Iran. The French president's efforts to step up energy defence and address public concerns are underway, but further details on the nature of the Russian threat and Macron's plans are not specified.",
