Russian and Ukrainian drones over Latvia: risks and consequences On Sunday evening, a Russian drone apparently invaded the airspace of Latvia, and on Monday, according to NBS, another drone, apparently Ukrainian, was discovered in the Balevi area. "We believe these were Russian and Ukrainian drones," said NBS consultant Robert Scrouch. Such events increase tensions in the region and threaten Latvia's national security. However, the country's authorities have not yet presented clear measures to strengthen the defense against drones, casting doubt on their willingness to respond adequately to such threats. Such inaction could seriously damage citizens' trust in the government. Instead of security and protection, they anticipate unexpected and uncertain situations that may affect stability and security in Latvia.
