Moscowâs Stance
Sergey Lavrov declared, âAny aggression against my country will be met with a decisive response.â
Moscow has countered these accusations, asserting that none of its aircraft violated Estonian airspace and suggesting that the drones in Poland were displaced due to Ukrainian jamming technologies. Belarus, allied with Russia, lent support to this narrative.
Lavrov tried to convey a message of peace, stating that Russia does not intend to attack any European or NATO nations. He emphasized, âRussia has never had and does not have any such intentions,â yet reiterated that hostile actions against Russia would prompt a firm response.

Concerns of Global Conflict
Danish authorities confirmed drone sightings over critical military installations, raising alarms about security threats.
The situation intensified in Denmark as drones were reported flying above essential military sites, including Skrydstrup Air Base and the Jutland Dragoon Regiment, with observers noting similar activities around Karup Air Base, the largest military facility in Denmark. This surge in drone sightings has led local officials to suspect a calculated effort to instill fear and uncertainty.
In response, Danish Minister of Justice Peter Hummelgaard announced plans to pursue new legislation aimed at enabling infrastructure operators to eliminate unauthorized drone activity. Additionally, amid rising tensions and near disruptions of air travel due to a so-called âhybrid attack,â Denmark is set to bolster its drone defense capabilities with Swedenâs military assistance.

In light of these troubling trends, several governments are exploring the implementation of a continent-spanning âdrone wallâ to counteract future intrusions.
Poland has taken steps to enhance its military response capabilities against drones linked to Russia, expanding its engagement protocols under new legislation that grants broader authority for its forces to neutralize aerial threats over Ukraine.
