Estonia’s Foreign Ministry confirmed the drone breached the country’s airspace before hitting infrastructure at the energy facility, though officials have not yet reported casualties or the full extent of the damage.
The incident comes as Russia reported that Ukraine launched what it described as its largest drone assault since the start of the war, targeting multiple sites across Russian territory, according to official statements.
Authorities in Estonia say they are investigating the airspace violation, while NATO-aligned officials are monitoring the situation closely amid heightened regional tensions.
The developments mark a further escalation in the wider Russo-Ukraine War, which has increasingly seen spillover effects beyond Ukraine’s borders, including drone incursions and strikes impacting neighboring states.
Officials in Russia say their air defense systems were activated during the overnight wave of attacks, as both sides continue to intensify aerial operations with no immediate sign of de-escalation.
