Details: Häkkänen confirmed that restrictions lasting about four hours in the Gulf of Finland on the morning of 4 July were linked to a Ukrainian UAV attack on targets inside Russia. He said the measures were precautionary and that the situation was not considered serious enough to warrant issuing air-raid warnings for residents along the Gulf of Finland coast.
