    I’m curious what Lithuania and Poland think about having armed drones going through their airspace. On the one hand they get a free reduction in Russian military equipment on the other hand it comes at the cost of explosives flying through their airspace and potential Russian return fire over the border. Though I suppose it’s possible the Ukrainian got a drone carrier into the Baltic Sea.

      Ukraine’s drones have enough range to just fly over SPb and then along the Baltic Sea. This could also explain why there was a military drone flying in the airspace over Helsinki just a while ago. Maybe the Russia managed to direct it off course when it was on the way to Kaliningrad?

      But, another possible scenario is indeed that they were launched from a container on some cargo ship. It’s not necessarily possible for the Russia to find out what ship was used.
