Putin's jets intercepted near Finland's border with Norway as NATO swoops on Russians
NATO has intercepted two Russian jets near Finland's border with Norway.
The Russian aircraft were spotted off the coast of Finnmark in the north of Norway by two F-35 fighter planes on Thursday, May 26. The Kremlin planes, a Mikoyan MiG-31 ‘Foxhound’ and Sukhoi Su-24 ‘Fencer’ retreated east after they were intercepted by Norway’s jets.
The Royal Norwegian Air Force tweeted: “F-35 identified two Russian aircraft north of Finnmark today.
Norway always has two F-35 fighters on standby as part of NATO’s Quick Reaction Alert.
Asked if the incursions were a threat to Norway, she said: “I do not want to say that, because we are used to it happening, and there is nothing illegal in it.
It comes amid rising tensions between Russia and Finland since the country formally applied to join NATO in the wake of Vladimir Putin’s invasion of Ukraine on February.
Finland and Sweden simultaneously submitted their applications for the military alliance earlier this month, marking a historic geopolitical shift in response to Russia’s aggression.
