Three NATO aircraft were spotted over the Black Sea on 14 November, according to military correspondent Yuriy Kotenok. He reported that the flight zone included a French multirole fighter Dassault Mirage 2000, an Airbus A330-243 MRTT tanker, and a US Bombardier Challenger 650 Artemis — an intelligence platform used for target acquisition and electronic surveillance.
Kotenok noted that the closest approach to Russian territory was registered near Sochi.
He added that after the overnight attack by Ukrainian drones — 59 intercepted over the Black Sea and 66 over Krasnodarsky Krai — this axis is likely to remain one of the key operational directions for the opposing side.
