In the current year, the number of reconnaissance aircraft and unmanned aerial vehicles detected at the borders of Russia has increased significantly, in particular, only during the period from 21 to 28 May, 14 cases of approaching military aircraft to Russian borders have been revealed, which creates some potential risks.

Nevertheless, it remains completely unknown why, with the advent of Russian aircraft at the borders of European states, these countries immediately begin to announce the impending invasion ", - said the analyst Avia.pro.
