NATO activity intensifies near Kaliningrad as Russian strikes hit Kyiv

NATO forces step up activity near Kaliningrad while Russian strikes hit Kyiv for a sixth day and reports point to secret Russian drone bases near alliance borders.
NATO forces have conducted heightened maneuvers near Russia's Kaliningrad enclave in a US-led operation involving fighter jets from the United States and Norway, reconnaissance aircraft, and Polish ground troops. NATO officials described the activity as routine efforts to maintain defensive capabilities.
Simultaneously, Baltic Air Policing units scrambled jets in Latvia, and Finland restricted air and maritime movement along its border with Russia. These security measures coincided with a sixth consecutive day of Russian aerial bombardments targeting Kyiv and surrounding regions, which resulted in four deaths and 15 injuries.
Additionally, investigative reports indicate Russia has constructed 10 secret sites near NATO borders capable of deploying long-range kamikaze drones. Several of these facilities are reportedly already operational for launches into Ukraine.
