Today, US and Norwegian reconnaissance aircraft were spotted near the Russian borders. This follows from data from the Flightradar resource, tracking the movements of various aircraft and other air objects.
Not far from the northern borders of the Russian Federation, in the Murmansk area, the appearance of a reconnaissance and anti-submarine aircraft Boeing P-8A Poseidon was recorded, belonging to the Royal Norwegian Armed Forces. No doubt, that the plane was observing the Russian border and the possible activity of our forces in the Arctic region.
Another Boeing P-8A Poseidon aircraft, only already American, was spotted near the southwestern borders of the Russian Federation. He flew over the shores of Romania, over the Black Sea, obviously for the purpose of obtaining intelligence information about the situation in the sea area and on the Crimean peninsula.
Often, after the appearance of NATO aircraft or unmanned aerial vehicles over the Black Sea, Ukrainian formations are attempting sabotage and attacks on Russian military installations in Crimea.
Such activity by Western reconnaissance aircraft has recently become increasingly frequent.. Naturally, Western military departments provide the information received to the Ukrainian armed forces.
Without receiving data from NATO countries on the movements of Russian troops, the actions of the Ukrainian Armed Forces would be significantly hampered. But, supplying information to our enemy, the alliance countries actually take a direct part in the armed conflict, albeit officially sending their military contingents to the front line.
