The Estonian Ministry of Foreign Affairs has requested an emergency meeting of the UN Security Council after Russian planes violated Estonian airspace.

Three Russian MiG-31 fighter jets entered Estonian airspace, provoking a swift reaction from Italy, Sweden, and Finland, which intercepted the aircraft. Estonia requested an emergency meeting of the UN Security Council, marking the first such request in 34 years since its accession to the UN. The Estonian Prime Minister called for the activation of Article 4 of the Atlantic Treaty, emphasizing that Russia's actions are part of a broader strategy that tests the resolve of NATO and Europe.
