Gulf of Finland
other
The Gulf of Finland is a strategically significant body of water bordered by Russia and Finland, frequently subject to temporary airspace and maritime restrictions due to perceived drone threats. Finnish authorities have imposed such measures on multiple occasions in July, citing precautionary actions against potential Ukrainian drone attacks targeting Saint Petersburg. These restrictions affected both aviation and sea traffic in the eastern part of the Gulf, with limitations lifted after several hours without confirmed drone sightings.
