NATO air forces took off more than 300 times during 2023 in response to Russian actions.
Most interceptions are over the Baltic Sea. This was stated by Alliance representative Dylan White.
The vast majority of air engagements between NATO and Russian aircraft have been safe and professional.
Violations of NATO airspace by Russian military aircraft remained rare and, as a rule, short-lived,” the official noted.
After Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, NATO allies strengthened air power on their eastern flank. They deployed fighter jets and ground-based air defense systems.
“NATO fighters are on duty 24 hours a day and are ready to respond to suspicious or unannounced flights near our allies’ airspace,” White added.
