A fire happens in Estonia in August. The fire is at the firm Milrem Robotics. This firm builds robots for the army. The robots help in Ukraine too. The government in Estonia says: Russia plans the fire. It is a sabotage act.

A sabotage act is a bad plan to destroy things. Russian secret services give the order. The police catch 3 men. 2 men are from Latvia. 1 man is from another place. They make the fire. Estonia calls a worker from the Russian embassy.

Russia says: We do not do it. The words are not true. NATO wants to help Ukraine. The NATO chief says: We are not afraid. Estonia is next to Russia. The country has fear for peace.
