Two drones, at least one confirmed Ukrainian, crashed in southern Finland near Kouvola in the Kymenlaakso region. The Finnish Air Force scrambled F/A-18 Hornet jets to identify the objects. The incident may be connected to Ukraine's ongoing drone attacks on Russian oil facilities on the Baltic Sea coast. Finnish officials treat the matter seriously. Prime Minister Petteri Orpo confirmed the drones were likely Ukrainian and emphasized Kyiv's targeting of Russian oil infrastructure to weaken Russia's war economy. Neighboring Baltic states reported similar drone crashes after attacks on Russian export facilities.
