The Comprehensive Aerospace Defense Command (CODAI) of the Bolivarian National Armed Forces (FANB) denounced the illegal entry of an RC135 Strategic Intelligence aircraft of the United States Air Force (Usaf) into the Venezuelan Flight Information Region. “Today, we are back to the same, with a RC135 USAF Strategic Intelligence plane not complying with international aeronautical protocols,” says the aerospace defense command in its social network account on Twitter.
He notes in the tweet that “the US insists on creating conditions of insecurity in the Flight Information Region (FIR) in Northern Venezuela.”
