On Thursday evening, the French Navy opened fire on unknown drones that appeared around the Île-Longue nuclear submarine base, located near Brest. The incident occurred around 7:30 PM, when five drones were observed in the area. The Marine Corps battalion responsible for the security of the base responded by opening fire, but there is no clear information on whether the drones were shot down. The Île-Longue base is essential for the maintenance of France's nuclear submarines, and the presence of drones in its vicinity has raised concerns, given that similar incidents have been reported recently in Europe, with suspected involvement from Russia. Additionally, another incident occurred in Ireland, where drones tracked the plane of Ukrainian President Zelensky, without managing to intercept it. Irish authorities are investigating this case but have not provided further details.
