A Russian reconnaissance aircraft briefly violated Sweden’s airspace on Friday, Swedish defense officials stated on Saturday, because the Scandinavian nation ponders a bid for NATO membership after Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.
“A Russian AN-30 propeller aircraft violated Swedish airspace on Friday night,” the Swedish protection ministry stated in an announcement, adding that its teams had adopted the incident and photographed it.
The ministry mentioned the plane was flying east of Bornholm, a Danish island within the Baltic, before it headed towards Swedish territory.
“It's totally unacceptable to violate Swedish airspace,” public tv SVT quoted Protection Minister Peter Hultqvist as saying.
“This motion is unprofessional and given the overall safety state of affairs very inappropriate. Swedish sovereignty must always be respected.”
