3 Aircraft Violate Airspace Near Trump's Florida Estate, F-16 Fighter Jets Scrambled: Report
Three civilian aircraft were reportedly intercepted by F-16 fighter jets after breaching the restricted airspace above Mar-a-Lago, the Florida resort of US President Donald Trump. The airspace violations prompted a swift response from the North American Aerospace Defense Command (NORAD), which scrambled the fighter jets to escort the planes out of the area.
The incidents took place at 11:05 am, 12:10 pm, and 12:50 pm, although the reasons for the airspace violations remain unclear. It is not the first time such breaches have occurred recently, as similar incidents have been reported frequently over the past few weeks.
Local reports from the Palm Beach Post highlighted previous airspace violations that took place in the area during Trump's visits to his Mar-a-Lago estate.
