The MiG-29 fighters seen in the sky over Libya really turned out to be Russian.
According to information provided by an informed Syrian source, the Russian MiG-29 fighters transferred to the Syrian Air Force several days ago carry out mysterious flights to Libya every day. In fact, we are probably talking about MiG-29 fighters, previously seen by the American military off the coast of Libya, although taking into account the transfer of these combat aircraft to the armament of the SAR Air Force, any accusations against Russia are now completely groundless.

The reasons for such mysterious flights to Libya remain unknown, however, experts draw attention to one very important feature - ordinary MiG-29 fighters are unlikely to be able to get from Syria to Libya, and therefore, in the video provided by the American military, it is quite clearly captured fighter MiG-29SMT, namely these combat vehicles were transferred to the Syrian military from the Russian Aerospace Forces.
