Estonia accuses Russia of orchestrating an arson attack on a defense company in Tallinn, which supplies Ukraine with military drones. The attack, which occurred on August 15, was confirmed by Estonian authorities as an act of sabotage by Russian special services.
Estonian Foreign Minister Margus Tsahkna confirmed the attack was ordered by Russian intelligence, with three suspects arrested in Latvia and handed over to Estonian authorities. The fire, which was quickly contained, did not result in injuries but raised concerns about hybrid warfare tactics by Moscow.
EU and NATO leaders have condemned the attack, with Estonia's allies vowing continued support for Ukraine. The incident highlights ongoing Russian aggression against NATO members, with officials warning that such attacks will not deter European solidarity in supporting Kyiv.
The Kremlin has denied involvement, calling the accusations 'baseless,' but EU officials have reaffirmed their commitment to Ukraine, emphasizing that Russia's attempts to undermine European unity will fail.
