On September 19, the Russian regime staged another provocation against a NATO country. Two Russian aircraft flew over the Petrobaltic oil and gas platform in Poland’s territorial waters, according to a post from the Polish Border Guard.
It was reported that two Russian military fighter jets made a dangerous low flyover of the Petrobaltic oil and gas platform. The Polish Border Guard did not specify the exact type of aircraft.
"Polish security services continuously monitor the situation at critical maritime infrastructure, including areas outside Poland’s territorial waters," the statement said.
Earlier, three Russian MiG-31K fighters violated Estonian airspace on the afternoon of September 19, remaining there for 12 minutes. In response, Estonia’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs summoned the Russian chargé d’affaires and requested urgent consultations with NATO.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy expressed confidence that the intrusion of Russian fighters into Estonian airspace is part of a systematic campaign by the Russian regime, stating that NATO must respond firmly to Russia.
