The military service has completed an internal inspection regarding the drone incidents that occurred on May 7 in Rēzekne. The inspection identified certain deficiencies in military procedures or conduct, but no disciplinary sanctions were applied to any soldiers or officials.

The inspection was launched after drone flights were observed in Rēzekne, raising security concerns. The military service evaluated the situation to determine whether regulations were followed and whether additional action was needed. Although some shortcomings were found, they were not considered serious enough to warrant disciplinary measures.

This decision indicates that the military acknowledges there were shortcomings during the incidents, but they are not attributed to individual fault. The military will continue to monitor and improve its procedures to prevent similar incidents in the future. Specific details about the nature of the deficiencies have not been disclosed.
