Russia summons Swedish envoy, alleges repeated drone incursions

Russia's Foreign Ministry summoned Sweden's ambassador to Moscow for talks on July 6, Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova has said.

Zakharova noted that the Swedish envoy would be reminded of Stockholm's obligations under the Vienna Convention as well as of assurances previously provided by the Swedish authorities, Caliber.Az reports, citing Russian media.

"We will have to reiterate them once again," she added.

She further alleged that the Russian Embassy in Sweden and its diplomatic staff are "not merely facing a hypothetical threat, but are being subjected to deliberate drone incursions targeting the embassy's premises."

According to Zakharova, such incidents have become a recurring occurrence.
