A Russian reconnaissance plane briefly violated Sweden’s airspace on Friday, Swedish defense officials mentioned on Saturday, because the Scandinavian nation ponders a bid for NATO membership after Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.
“A Russian AN-30 propeller plane violated Swedish airspace on Friday night,” the Swedish defense ministry said in a statement, adding that its groups had followed 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 totally unacceptable to violate Swedish airspace,” public television SVT quoted Defense Minister Peter Hultqvist as saying.
“This motion is unprofessional and given the overall security scenario very inappropriate. Swedish sovereignty must at all times be respected.”
