New air and maritime incidents heighten alarm over Russia-NATO tensions
A Danish helicopter was reportedly attacked and a drone was shot down in Lithuania amid additional unidentified-drone incidents in Europe. The reports add potentially direct incidents involving NATO members to the broader confrontation with Russia, though details remain unclear.
Possible attacks on NATO-linked aircraft and airspace incidents increase the risk of escalation through misidentification or retaliation.
