Elements of the crashed drone were found close Tartu, Estonia. The services are now trying to find out whether it came from Russia or Latvia. This has never happened in this country before.
A drone has fallen in Estonia. Everything indicates it was a Ukrainian machine.
– On the basis of preliminary inspections, we have reason to believe that the parts found were a Ukrainian drone, which was aimed at Russian facilities in the hinterland but deviated from the course by Russian jamming GPS and another electronic combat means, which caused it to fly into Estonia's airspace – the head of the interior safety Agency and Counterintelligence (Kapo) Margo Palloson reported during the conference.
He added that "for now, nothing indicates it was a Russian drone". The incidental besides sparked many reactions among politicians. The country's president Alar Karis called for an accelerated improvement of air defense, and defence minister Hanno Pevkur said that Estonia is in the process of purchasing a fresh kind of radar capable of detecting low-flying objects.
– Russia uses very strong jamming of GPS signal close our borders. As a result, 1 day the drone lands in Lithuania, the next in Latvia, and now it reaches Estonia," explained Pevkur. Last weekend, erstwhile Ukraine attacked targets in Russia, Estonian police and border defender noted the active drone movement. Unmanned were flying towards facilities in St. Petersburg and the Ust-Luga oil terminal close the border with Estonia.
Let us add that a military drone besides fell in Poland recently. The event occurred in the village of Osiny (Łuków County). The device fell into a cornfield and exploded. The bang was so strong, he smashed the windows of close houses.
The latest information in this case was provided by Deputy abroad Minister Władysław Teofil Bartoszewski. There's no authoritative version yet. However, from what I hear, this is not an authoritative version, we are waiting for a report, he flew in from Ukraine, which is interesting, that Ukrainians are best prepared from all countries to fight drones, due to the fact that they deal with this all day – informed the Deputy Head of the abroad Ministry on tv Republic.
– We believe that it was a Russian drone that flew across Ukraine's territory – the Deputy Minister indicated.
