Escalation of Tensions: Russian Jets Violate NATO Airspace in Estonia

A series of recent incidents have heightened tensions between Russia and NATO, particularly involving violations of Estonian airspace. Estonia has reported multiple incursions by Russian fighter jets, including a notable incident where three jets entered its airspace, prompting the Estonian Prime Minister to invoke NATO Article 4 consultations. NATO has responded by intercepting Russian jets, describing these actions as reckless provocations. Additionally, Poland has raised concerns about violations near its Baltic drilling platforms. In light of these developments, NATO member states are evaluating their response strategies, with calls for a more robust defensive posture against Russian military maneuvers.
