NATO Deploys Spanish Jets in Response to Russian Airspace Breach

NATO responded to Russian aircraft breaching European airspace by deploying warplanes. Two Spanish Eurofighter jets were dispatched after Russian military planes violated Lithuanian airspace for a brief 18-second period from the Kaliningrad region. The Spanish jets, part of NATO’s Baltic Air Police, patrolled the area in response to the incident. Lithuania’s President condemned the breach, calling it a clear violation of international law and the country’s territorial integrity. President Gitanas Nausėda emphasized the need to enhance European air defense readiness in light of such provocations. This recent intrusion adds to a series of airspace violations by Russia, sparking concerns and demands for increased security measures in both eastern and western Europe.
