NATO Jet Shoots Down Stray Ukrainian Drone Over Estonia, Defence Minister Confirms
On May 19, 2026, NATO Baltic Air Policing fighter jets shot down a stray Ukrainian drone over Lake Vörtsjärv in southern Estonia; officials believe the drone, targeting northwestern Russia, strayed off course due to jammed systems. Estonia’s defence minister, parliamentary committee chair, and prime minister confirmed the incident, which caused no civilian casualties or damage; Estonia and Latvia issued drone alerts disrupting services amid recent stray drone incursions in Baltic and Nordic NATO states linked to the ongoing Russian war on Ukraine.
