Latvia's prime minister has resigned following a controversy involving stray Ukrainian drones, according to the Los Angeles Times.

The incident, which prompted the resignation, reflects tensions that can arise from border proximity during the Ukraine conflict. The development marks a significant political consequence stemming from cross-border military activity in the region.

Latvia, a NATO member and EU state bordering both Russia and Belarus, has been among Ukraine's most vocal Western supporters, making the resignation politically sensitive.
