Russian MiG‑31 fighter jets entered Estonian airspace near Vaindloo Island in the Baltic Sea and remained inside for about 12 minutes, Estonian officials report. Although NATO‑deployed Italian F‑35s signaled the Russian aircraft to leave, radar and visual monitoring suggest the Russian pilots ignored the signals. The aircraft were flying without flight plans or active transponders at the time.
A U.S. fighter jet intercepted a civilian aircraft Saturday afternoon after the pilot flew into restricted airspace over Bedminster, New Jersey, where President Donald Trump was spending the holiday weekend. The North American Aerospace Defense Command (NORAD) confirmed the incident was one of five airspace violations near the Trump National Golf Club that day.
