Dutch F-35 intercept, escort away Russian warplanes nearing Polish airspace

These are very dangerous times! One mistake ...

The Russo-Ukrainian War is already like World War III by any other name (how many countries are involved?)! Any time things could get worse or escalate.

"Dutch F-35 jets intercepted and escorted away three Russian warplanes after they neared Polish airspace on Monday, said Dutch Defense Ministry.

The Russian IL-20M Coot-A reconnaissance and signals plane and two SU-27 Flanker fighter planes were escorted "from a distance and handed over escort to NATO partners," said the ministry.

NATO air command said on Monday morning that German Eurofighters shadowed the Russian craft, "who were posing a danger to other air users by ignoring international air safety rules." ..."
