The Finnish president commented on reports by The Telegraph daily, according to which Russia is deliberately redirecting Ukrainian drones targeting objects in Russia into the airspace of the Baltic states and Finland. According to the newspaper, a transmitter located in the Königsberg Oblast, which has been disturbing navigation in the Baltic region for years, is responsible for changing the trajectory of UAV flights.
— First of all, the president and the commander-in-chief of the armed forces listen more to the military, the air force and military intelligence than the newspaper's editorial staff, and Russia is now sufficiently busy defending itself against Ukrainian drone attacks, said Stubb, who visited a Finnish air force squadron in Rovaniemi on Tuesday.
Violation of the airspace of NATO countries
Since the end of March, since Ukraine has been conducting intensive attacks on Russian infrastructure targets, including: over the Gulf of Finland, Ukrainian drones repeatedly violated the airspace of the Baltic countries and Finland. Several of them fell in uninhabited areas.
Drones also hit border regions, e.g. a power plant chimney (Estonia) or a fuel warehouse (Latvia), and in Estonia a drone was shot down by a NATO fighter.
