Two Russian military aircraft entered Nato member Lithuania’s airspace on Thursday for about 18 seconds, Lithuania’s military said.
The two aircraft, an Su-30 fighter and Il-78 refuelling tanker, were possibly on a refuelling training mission when they flew 700 metres into Lithuania from Kaliningrad region at about 1500 GMT, the military said.
“This incident once again shows that Russia is behaving like a terrorist state, disregarding international law and the security of neighbouring countries,” said Lithuanian Prime Minister Inga Ruginiene on Facebook.
“Lithuania is safe. Together with our allies, we look after and will defend every centimetre of our country”, she added.
Spanish Eurofighter Typhoon jets from Nato Baltic Air Police were scrambled in response and are patrolling the area, the military said.
