Quote from Brekelmans: "From September, Dutch F-35 fighter jets will patrol NATO airspace in Poland together with Norway. In this way, we will keep Russia at bay and protect the supply routes to Ukraine."
Background: Since December 2024, Norwegian NASAMS air defence systems have been deployed to protect the airport in Rzeszów, Poland.
