Latvia's Ministry of Foreign Affairs summoned the Chargé d'Affaires ad interim of the Russian Embassy on May 18 and lodged a formal protest. The protest responded to a public statement issued earlier that day by Russia's Foreign Intelligence Service, which said Ukraine was planning to use Latvian territory to launch drone attacks against Russia.
The summons occurred amid reports that unidentified drones entered the airspace over both Estonia and Latvia on the same day. No further details on the drones or any response measures were provided in the available reporting.
