The Finnish Defence Forces have imposed temporary restrictions on air and maritime traffic in the eastern Gulf of Finland, effective since Tuesday at 3:37 AM. These limitations are currently in place within designated restricted zones. The announcement was made via the Defence Forces’ official X (formerly Twitter) account. While the specific reasons for the restrictions weren’t immediately detailed, they come amid reported incidents, including a fire at the Laukansuu harbour in Russia. This move signals heightened security measures in the region. Further details regarding the duration and scope of the restrictions are expected to be released by the Finnish Defence Forces. The situation is being closely monitored.
