Mar 30, 2026

Berlin [Germany], March 30: Two drones believed to be Ukrainian have come down in south-eastern Finland, Finnish media reported on Sunday.
Public broadcaster Yle reported that one unmanned aerial vehicle had fallen to the north of Kouvola and another to the east of the city. There were no reports of injuries or damage.
"Drones have strayed into Finnish territory. We take this very seriously," Defence Minister Antti Hakkanen said, according to Yle. The ministry reported that a number of objects had been detected passing at low altitude through Finnish airspace. Combat jets were scrambled to identify them but had not shot them down to avoid damage on the ground, it said.
Yle said the air force had identified the objects as Ukrainian drones, and Prime Minister Petteri Orpo said later that they had "probably" originated from Ukraine.
