Finland Summons Russian Envoy Over Airspace Violation
Imagine Finland is like your house, and Russia's planes flew over it without permission.
Finland, which is part of a group called NATO, got upset.
They called in Russia's ambassador, who is like the boss of Russia in Finland, to talk about it.
Finland told the ambassador that they're not happy about the planes entering their space.
The ambassador said he would tell his bosses.
This happened because Finland thinks Russian planes flew into their air, and they want to make sure it doesn't happen again, especially with the situation in the Baltic Sea being tense since the war in Ukraine.
