Estonia and Latvia have said the UAVs exploded on their territory, a day after Lithuania reported a strike<\/strong><\/p>\n

A Ukrainian kamikaze drone on its way to strike Russia hit a power plant in northeastern Estonia early Wednesday, Estonian Prime Minister Kristen Michal has said, according to public broadcaster ERR. Another UAV hit in Latvia, the Defense Ministry in Riga reports.<\/p>\n

The Ukrainian military has intensified its kamikaze drone strikes on Russian regions in recent months, after facing a number of battlefield setbacks in Ukraine. Moscow has characterized them as \u201cterrorist attacks\u201d<\/em> targeting infrastructure, as well as industrial and residential areas.<\/p>\n

According to ERR, one Ukrainian drone hit the chimney of the Auvere Power Plant in Estonia at around 3:43 AM local time. It was part of a large-scale overnight attack on Russia\u2019s Baltic Sea port of Ust-Luga, during which a number of UAVs launched from Ukraine traversed Estonian airspace, Michal told journalists on Wednesday.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe can already say with certainty that it was a drone that went astray,\u201d<\/em> she told reporters after a meeting with national security officials in Vilnius on Tuesday. \u201c[It] was a Ukrainian drone and was associated with the operation that the Ukrainians were conducting against Russia that night.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

Lithuanian Defense Minister Robertas Kaunas said the drone went undetected by NATO radar because it was \u201cflying at an altitude of less than 300 meters.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

The incidents are not the first examples of Ukrainian drones and other munitions encroaching into NATO members states since the escalation of the Ukraine conflict in 2022.<\/p>\n

Last summer, Estonia\u2019s Internal Security Service reported a suspected Ukrainian drone crash in a field in the southeast of the country.<\/p>\n

In September, after more than a dozen drones were reported crossing into Poland, Moscow accused Kiev of deliberately sending UAVs into NATO territory as part of a false flag attack, in order to pit the military bloc directly against Russia.<\/p>\n

Polish media later confirmed that the only damage from the incident was caused by a missile fired by one of Poland\u2019s F-16s involved in intercepting the drones. Moscow has maintained that it was not striking targets in the area at the time.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
