PoliticalUpdate🇷🇺Russia 🇺🇦Ukraine 🇺🇸United States+146d ago

Russia’s war against Ukraine has begun to affect Northern Europe directly. Ukrainian forces launch drones against Russian oil refineries in the St. Petersburg region almost daily, and those drones are increasingly appearing in the airspace of the Baltic states and Finland. Russian pro-war social media channels claim that these countries unofficially allow Ukraine to use their airspace for drone flights. There is no independent confirmation of that claim; moreover, Latvian authorities officially rejected the accusations. In Latvia, the drone incidents have already had political consequences: the government resigned. Below is a rundown of the most notable drone incidents in Northern Europe over the past two months.
