IISS Twitter post, full text below: When President Zelenskyy visited Dublin in December 2025, four military-style UAVs breached a no-fly zone, flew along his aircraft’s intended route and orbited an Irish naval vessel for up to two hours. Nearby, the shadow-fleet-linked Vezhen was loitering inside the Irish EEZ. When he returned on 1 July 2026, Ireland’s response was markedly stronger. This time Ireland’s Naval Service deployed ships alongside Air Corps maritime patrol aircraft, and drone flights were also banned within temporary exclusion zones.

Deborah Haynes @haynesdeborah BREAKING: A Russian spy plane has flown “unnecessarily close” to the UK’s flagship aircraft carrier HMS Prince of Wales in the Norwegian Sea and dropped “a large number” of expendable sonar devices close to the warship, the UK Ministry of Defence says. Two F-35 jets from the carrier scrambled to intercept the Bear-F maritime patrol aircraft. The UK says the Russian “activity was unsafe and unprofessional” This happened on 2 July. The UK carrier is deployed to the High North on a NATO mission
