Estonia has installed its first permanent drone detection and monitoring systems along three sections of the land border between Latvia and Russia in the country's southeast.

According to Ukrinform, ERR stated this in an article.

Similar systems will be installed along the remaining sections of the land border later this year.

"The first devices have been installed and are operational. Of course, this is only the beginning: we are moving toward creating a drone-monitoring network that will cover all of Estonia. This step shows that our earlier preparatory work has paid off. Recent drone incidents demonstrate that we assessed the risks very realistically when planning our capabilities," Estonian Interior Minister Igor Taro said in a press release issued by the Interior Ministry.
