NATO jets shoot down drone over Latvia, extending Ukraine spillover fears

The Latvian military said on Monday that French aircraft destroyed a 'foreign' drone that entered Latvian airspace due to 'Russian electronic warfare'. The drone was shot down near the village of Berzgale, about 30 km from the Russian border, with no injuries or damage. Latvian Prime Minister Andris Kulbergs praised the 'swift decision-making and professional action'. The incident adds to a growing list of incursions from the Russia-Ukraine war into neighboring NATO countries, raising fears of spillover effects.
