A new report from the International Institute for Strategic Studies (IISS) has concluded that Russian drones are likely being used to survey UK military airbases as part of what it describes as the Kremlin’s broader unconventional campaign against Europe.
The report, Russia’s UAV Campaign Over Europe, states that drones were flown in the airspace of 12 NATO member states and Ireland between August 2024 and February 2026. According to the authors, the surveillance of British military sites was “highly likely” conducted using drones launched from vessels linked to Russia’s shadow fleet.
