The MEP attributes all hundreds of thousands of cyber incidents specifically to Russian actors, but CERT Polska and Ministry of Digital Affairs data cover all cyber threats regardless of origin; no public source confirms that every incident is Russian-attributed.
A distinction exists between 'reports' (zgłoszenia — 600,990 in 2024, ~682,000 in 2025) and 'confirmed security incidents' (incydenty — 103,449 in 2024, ~260,000–273,000 in 2025). The claim does not specify which metric it uses, and the lower figure for 2024 barely crosses the 'hundreds of thousands' threshold.
Data cited covers only 2024 and 2025; earlier years are not documented in the sources found, so the 'every year' assertion cannot be fully verified across a longer time span.
