NATO confirmed on Tuesday that one of its F16 jets from the Baltic air policing mission based in Lithuania had shot down a drone over Estonian airspace.
Estonia and Latvia both issued air alert threats reporting a drone in their airspace. It was not immediately clear whether they were referring to the same or different aircraft. What happened?
Estonia's military said that a drone entered its airspace at around noon local time (0900 GMT/UTC) on Tuesday, entering from Russia into the southeastern part of the country.
It was shot down by a Romanian NATO fighter jet on a training flight with a single missile at 12:14 local time.
"The incident occurred under the conditions of heavy electronic warfare, including GPS spoofing and jamming, by Russia," the military said.
