“allowing them to use their airspace for attacks on Russian civilian infrastructure”
DISPUTED
This claim is presented as an accusation by Russia (TASS). While some reports mention Russian warnings and threats regarding the use of airspace for drones, there is no neutral or authoritative evidence (like Wikipedia) confirming that European countries have officially 'allowed' their airspace to be used for attacks on Russian civilian infrastructure; rather, these are claims made by the Russian state.
