The portfolio also sent photographs it took of the aircraft, which they indicated is used by the Russian Air Force for strategic espionage operations.
The device “was east of Bornholm (a Danish island in the Baltic Sea) and then headed towards Swedish territory.”“, stated the text.
Minister Peter Hultqvist also denounced the incursion and in a letter broadcast on public television SVT expressed his rejection: “It is totally unacceptable that Swedish airspace is violated (…). This action is not professional and, given the general situation in terms of security, it is highly inappropriate. Swedish sovereignty must always be respected.”
“Obviously, we will protest through diplomatic channels,” he added.
It is not the first time that Defense has seen Russian aircraft since the fighting in Ukraine began.
In early March, four Russian warplanes briefly entered Swedish airspace, east of the Baltic island of Gotland.
