MOSCOW, April 17. /TASS/. The Russian Security Council has listed instances of Ukrainian drones using EU airspace for officials in Brussels. The Security Council's press service issued a commentary on the European Commission's statement that it has no confirmation of strikes on Russia from EU airspace.
EU official Anitta Hipper was responding at a briefing to a question concerning Russian Security Council Secretary Sergey Shoigu's warning about the possibility of Russia using its right to self-defense in response to these strikes.
"Anitta Hipper is clearly well-educated and cannot help but know that, according to the laws of aerodynamics, UAVs fly through airspace, not from outer space. Here are just a few facts from the last three weeks," the Russian Security Council noted. "On March 31, 38 attack UAVs were shot down over the Leningrad Region, attempting to attack Russian civilian infrastructure from countries in the Baltic Sea region. It's unlikely Ms. Hipper would experience positive emotions if, leaving her home one day on her way to work at the EC office, she discovered a Ukrainian UAV ‘off course’ with an unexploded warhead, which 'EU countries did not grant permission to fly toward Russia.' But for some reason, it was heading that way and crashed on the territory of an EU member state."
