Russian espionage? – Drones over US bases in Great Britain

Date:

Since the outbreak of war in Ukraine, there have been increasing drone sightings over military bases in Germany. According to the media, a total of 172 reports were received in 2022. The following year there were 446. American bases in Great Britain are now also regularly flown over by unmanned aircraft.

Since last Wednesday, small drones have been spotted in England near the RAF Lakenheath, RAF Mildenhall, RAF Feltwell and RAF Fairford bases, the US Air Force in Europe said. British soldiers must help find out who is responsible for the drone flights. About sixty soldiers would be deployed in the investigation, the British news agency PA reports.

The number and size of the drones varied, the US statement said. “Our units continue to monitor the airspace.” The cases have not impacted residents, facilities or facilities so far. “The Air Force is taking all appropriate measures to protect the listed facilities and their residents,” the Air Force said.

Suspected sabotage due to damaged data cables in the Baltic Sea
Neither the British nor the American governments have yet named suspects. However, Western secret services have been warning for some time about Russian acts of sabotage in states affiliated with Ukraine. The case of two damaged data cables in the Baltic Sea is also being investigated for possible sabotage. German Defense Minister Boris Pistorius said in connection with the two incidents in the Baltic Sea that “sabotage” had to be assumed.

The governments of Denmark and Sweden agreed with this position. The Russian government has dismissed as “ridiculous” and “absurd” the suggestion that this could be sabotage in connection with Russia’s war of aggression against Ukraine.
