NATO Condemns Russia's Airspace Violations Over Estonia
NATO criticized Russia for violating Estonian airspace, pledging to defend against Moscow's escalating behavior. Last week, Russian MiG-31 jets intruded for 12 minutes, highlighting concerns over NATO's readiness. NATO vows to use all necessary tools to deter threats and support Ukraine against Russia's aggression.
NATO has slammed Russia for what it describes as a violation of Estonian airspace last week, declaring its intention to employ military and non-military measures to protect allied territories.
The breach involved three Russian MiG-31 fighter jets, which entered Estonian skies before being escorted out by NATO fighters. NATO officials suspect the act was a test of its response strategies following a similar drone incursion in Polish airspace.
During a meeting under Article 4 of NATO's founding treaty, the alliance's members reiterated their commitment to Ukraine's self-defense and condemned Russia's recent escalations, emphasizing their resolve to deter all threats.
