Summary

Estonian authorities, including the Internal Security Service and Foreign Minister Margus Tsahkna, claim Russian special services ordered an August 15 arson attack on Milrem Robotics, a Tallinn defence company that supplies unmanned ground vehicles to Ukraine. The claim is disputed: the Kremlin, through spokesman Dmitry Peskov, denies involvement and calls the accusations baseless. Three suspects, reported as Latvian nationals, were detained in Latvia and handed over to Estonia. Investigators seized data storage devices and items that may have been used to set the fire. NATO and EU leaders expressed support for Estonia, and Estonia has summoned the Russian ambassador and said it will increase pressure on Russia.
