Moscow denies its fighter jets crossed the NATO state\u2019s border<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Russian Defense Ministry has denied that its warplanes entered Estonia’s airspace on Friday. <\/p>\n

The Baltic EU and NATO state had claimed that three aircraft violated its airspace for 12 minutes in what it called an “unprecedented brazen”<\/em> incursion.<\/p>\n

“The flight was carried out in strict accordance with international airspace regulations and without crossing the borders of other countries,”<\/em> the ministry added.<\/p>\n
