Latvia and Lithuania Issue Airspace Warnings Amid Drone Threats Near Belarus Border
Latvia and Lithuania issued air raid warnings and urged residents near their borders with Russia and Belarus to take shelter due to unidentified drone threats. NATO fighter jets were scrambled in response to objects detected in Belarus moving toward the Baltic states. Ukrainian military drones have occasionally strayed into the airspace of Finland, Estonia, Latvia, and Lithuania amid the Ukraine-Russia conflict, raising concerns about spillover into NATO territory. Moscow accuses Kyiv of using NATO airspace for attacks, while Kyiv cites Russian signal jamming as a cause for drone misdirection.
