Nato-Russia Warplane Clash over Baltic Sea
Nato and Russian warplanes clashed above the Baltic Sea during a standoff over a suspected Russian tanker, leading to a dramatic encounter with Estonia's sea and air forces. The tanker, called Jaguar, was accused of being a Russian pawn by Britain and was ultimately anchored near Russian-controlled Gogland Island after a tense confrontation. The incident occurred ahead of direct peace talks between Russia and Ukraine, where Putin decided to snub Zelensky's challenge for an in-person meeting in Istanbul.
