NATO allies warn Russia may stage provocation in Baltic states or Poland to test alliance unity

Summary

Two NATO countries on the eastern flank have warned that Russia is preparing a possible military provocation in the Baltic states or Poland, aimed at testing the Western alliance's cohesion. The warning comes as the Kremlin faces growing pressure from Ukraine's long-range attacks near Moscow and St. Petersburg. Latvian intelligence has reported indications of Russian preparations for provocations, though these would fall well short of a full-scale attack.
