Estonia condemns Russia over Leipzig airport drone attack
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs on Wednesday summoned Russia's chargé d'affaires to express its strong condemnation of last month's drone incidents at a German airport.
Ukrainian naval drone strikes are diminishing the effectiveness of Russia's Kalibr missile attacks, according to the Institute for the Study of War (ISW) on September 3. Despite the Black Sea Fleet moving from Sevastopol to Novorossiysk in Krasnodar Krai, Ukraine's persistent drone attacks have kept Russian missile-carrying ships docked for three months.
This has forced the Russian Kalibr missiles to be launched from areas closer to naval bases, potentially contributing to a near-100% interception rate, according to ISW. On September 3, Ukrainian defense forces targeted the Russian support vessel Nefrit in Sochi, a demonstration of Ukraine's precision strikes on Russian ports along the entire Black Sea coast.
The attack resulted in a fire, and on September 4, additional explosions were reported in Sochi, along with assaults on a Russian air defense position and an oil depot. Ukrainian technological advancements, such as integrating First-Person View (FPV) drones into naval drone systems, enable the country's defense forces to carry out precise strikes on Russian Black Sea Fleet ships, air defense positions, and port infrastructure.
