The drone entered Latvian territory “as a result of Russian electronic warfare,” the Defence Ministry added.

Finland temporarily closed areas to air and sea traffic in the Gulf of Finland as a security measure against drones, the country's military said on X.

Aleksandr Drozdenko, governor of the Russian Leningrad region, said Russian air defences shot down 54 Ukrainian drones overnight.

According to the governor, a fire broke out in the Russian oil port of Ust-Luga as a result of the attack.
