Latvian military authorities confirmed that at least one drone entered Latvia's airspace from Russia. A French Rafale fighter jet shot down the drone within Latvian airspace. The incident has raised concerns that the war in Ukraine could spill over into the northern borders of NATO countries and Russia. Meanwhile, Ukrainian long-range attacks on Russian oil terminals in the Baltic Sea have caused some of Ukraine's drones to miss their targets, leading to safety alerts in neighboring countries.
