Two Ukrainian drones strayed from their course and entered the airspace of Estonia and Latvia, with one striking a chimney of an Estonian power plant, according to announcements from the two countries.

The drones are believed to have been involved in a large-scale attack by Ukraine against Russia. A third drone briefly entered Latvian airspace via Belarus before flying into Russia.

There are no reports of casualties or damage from the drone that hit the Auvere power plant, near the Russian border. The President of Latvia, Edgars Rinkēvičs, stated that the drone that crashed in Latvia was Ukrainian and participated in an attack against Russian targets.

Earlier this week, a Ukrainian drone fell into a lake in Lithuania. The Lithuanian Minister of Defense, Robertas Kaukėnas, stated that air defense is a challenge for NATO.
