South Korea sends fighters to track Russian aircraft
South Korea confirmed that it dispatched fighter jets in response to Russian aircraft entering the air defense identification zone over the Sea of Japan, marking the second such violation within weeks. The Ministry of Defense clarified that the Russian planes entered the area without breaching Korean airspace and that their presence was part of a routine air patrol aimed at strengthening military cooperation, despite Seoul's protests over the repeated movements by Russia and China. This comes amid escalating tensions between South Korea and Russia following the deterioration of relations due to sanctions on Russia and Moscow's ties with North Korea.
