Slovak Defense Minister Yaroslav Na denied previously published information by a Ukrainian journalist about the presence of MIG-29 fighter jets in Ukraine.
“More than 12 Mikoyan MIG-29 jet fighters are arriving from Slovakia,” Ukrainian journalist Ilya Ponomarenko shared this information, posting a photo on Twitter. The Slovak Ministry of Defense, in turn, claims that this is not true, according to Hlavne Spravy.
Defense Minister Yaroslav Na personally denied the information on the social network:
“No, my friends, there are no MiG-29 fighters in Ukraine. Sincerely, false information. They are still in Sliak. By the end of August, US airspace will be protected, on August 27 you will see them at SIAFe”, wrote the Secretary of Defense.
