According to military experts, the Russian incursions into Poland and Estonia are an attempt to prepare for any potential conflict with NATO. Russian MiG-31 fighter jets entered Estonian airspace for approximately 10 minutes yesterday, before being chased away by Italian F-35 jets.
Hours later, Russian fighter jets struck a Polish oil platform, Warsaw said. Last week, Russian drones were also shot down in Poland.
“Russia is deliberately trying to assess NATO’s capabilities and responses to various air incursions in the hope of applying lessons learned to potential future conflicts against the NATO alliance. Russian officials have consistently denied responsibility for the drone incursion into Poland and have criticized European efforts to defend against Russian aggression ,” the Institute for the Study of War said.
As a result, European officials are discussing the creation of a "drone defense wall" on the EU's eastern border.
Defence and Space Commissioner Andrius Kubilius said the project would likely involve a mix of sensors and defensive and jamming systems to detect and neutralise drones. He suggested the EU could complete the anti-drone wall within a year.
