Summary: On Wednesday afternoon, the regional crisis committee of both Southern and Eastern Estonia gathered for an emergency sitting on the internet, because a drone that had rammed the chimney of the Auvere power plant had created a new, so far unplayed situation that required discussion on how to proceed in such cases in the future. “If everyone knows what to do in a storm, the drone threat in the Estonian airspace raises questions about what it means,” said Tagne Tähe, head of the Southern rescue center.
