Dutch, Finnish and Swedish jets intercepted Russian plane carrying supersonic missiles over the Baltic Sea, the Dutch Defense Minister stated Wednesday.
Minister Ruben Brekelmans made the announcement on X.
No additional particulars have been offered on the engagement or the plane’s intentions. Since December, Dutch F-35s have been patrolling NATO’s japanese border.
Security within the Baltic nations of Latvia, Lithuania and Estonia, all of which border Russia, has been underneath elevated scrutiny since February 2022, when Russia launched a battle on its neighbor Ukraine.
