A Russian reconnaissance aircraft briefly violated Sweden’s airspace on Friday, Swedish defense officers mentioned on Saturday, as the Scandinavian country 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 defense ministry said in an announcement, including that its teams had adopted the incident and photographed it.
The ministry stated the airplane was flying east of Bornholm, a Danish island in the Baltic, before it headed toward Swedish territory.
“It is completely unacceptable to violate Swedish airspace,” public tv SVT quoted Defense Minister Peter Hultqvist as saying.
“This motion is unprofessional and given the overall safety situation very inappropriate. Swedish sovereignty should always be revered.”
