NATO claim; Unsafe flight of Russian jets near coalition ships


According to the report of Fars International News Agency, NATO claimed that 2 Russian warplanes during the flight in the “Baltic Sea” had an unsafe and unprofessional flight in the location of the NATO group’s ship.

According to the websitePress TVThe NATO Naval Command claimed that Russian fighter pilots flew at an altitude of 300 feet and 80 yards (73 meters) near NATO ships in the area on Thursday morning without announcing their flight information.

“NATO considers this flight to be unsafe and unprofessional because it took place in a dangerous area that was activated for air defense training,” the NATO statement said.

Such flights increase the risk of miscalculations and accidents, and NATO will respond to any interference with coalition activities in the region that endangers the safety of aircraft, ships or crews, the NATO statement said.

The Ministry of Defense of Russia has not reacted to this claim of the NATO alliance.

Tensions between the Western military alliance and Russia over Ukraine have reached their peak. The fear of a conflict between the two sides has increased in recent days after a missile hit the territory of Poland, from NATO members.

Simultaneously with the developments related to Ukraine and a missile hitting an area in this NATO member country, the spokesman of the German Ministry of Defense said that Berlin is ready to patrol the Polish airspace and send its “Eurofighter” fighters to this mission.

Christian Tilles, the spokesman of the German Ministry of Defense said, if Poland wants, this may happen tomorrow. He did not specify how many Eurofighters Germany would like to send to Poland (more details).

The NATO alliance has increased its naval presence in the Baltic Sea and the North after the September explosions in Russia-Europe gas pipelines. The NATO naval group in the Baltic includes Dutch, Norwegian and Danish cruisers.
