The Finnish Border Guard said an unmanned aerial vehicle was discovered on the ice in Pyhäjärvi in Parikkala on Tuesday morning, and no person was injured. Police are investigating the incident, which follows two drones crashing in southeastern Finland on Sunday. The Finnish Defense Forces believe the crashed drones are Ukrainian drones that ended up in Finland by mistake.
Authorities have not specified what type of unmanned aerial vehicle was found on Tuesday, such as its model, size, or purpose, nor have they identified who owns or operated it. It remains unclear what caused the two drones to crash on Sunday or what specific evidence supports the Finnish Defense Forces' assessment that they are Ukrainian and entered by mistake. The relationship between the Tuesday incident and the Sunday crashes is still under investigation, with officials not yet confirming if they are related or separate events.
