A Russian military propeller plane violated Swedish airspace.
This was reported by the Swedish Armed Forces.
On Friday night, a Russian An-30 plane violated Swedish airspace near Blekinge county. The Swedish Incident Preparedness Service monitored the entire process and photographed the plane.
"The plane was east of Bornholm [an island in the Baltic Sea, owned by Denmark] and then flew towards Swedish territory. The plane violated Swedish airspace for a short time and then left the area," the statement said.
- On April 5, the Swedish government decided to expel three Russian diplomats. It was stated that they were conducting illegal intelligence activities.
