On October 8, 2025, several European nations reported a surge in Russian drone incursions near their airspace, heightening regional security concerns. Military officials from Poland, Lithuania, and Finland confirmed multiple drone detections over the past 48 hours, some reportedly flying within restricted zones. The European Union and NATO condemned the incidents, calling them “provocative acts” that threaten continental stability. Poland’s Defense Ministry stated that one drone briefly crossed its border before being forced to land, while Lithuania accused Moscow of “testing NATO’s response protocols.” Russia has dismissed the allegations as “baseless propaganda,” but European leaders are pushing for joint air defence coordination and enhanced surveillance across the bloc. Analysts warn that the growing drone activity may represent a new phase in hybrid warfare tactics. #EuropeSecurity #RussianDrones #NATO #EU #HybridWarfare #Poland #Lithuania #Finland #Geopolitics #WorldNews
