Early in the morning on 15 May 2026, the Finnish Border Guard received information of drones possibly straying into Finland. These drones were expected to arrive in the area between Helsinki and Porvoo. As a result, the Finnish Border Guard immediately intensified its operations in the Gulf of Finland and Southeast Finland in cooperation with the Finnish Defence Forces and other authorities.
The Finnish Border Guard maintains a readiness to intensify surveillance and safeguarding measures in accordance with the changes in the risk environment, and develops its surveillance and response capability together with Finnish technology companies. Monitoring and safeguarding our territorial integrity is a part of the Finnish Border Guard’s daily duties.
At the moment, there is nothing more to report.
