NATO says it is set to deploy three surveillance planes to Romania next week to perform reconnaissance missions, strengthening Romania’s eastern flank and to “monitor Russian military activity.”
In a statement on Friday, the military alliance said that the three of Airborne Warning and Control System planes (AWACS) will be sent on Tuesday to an air base near Romania’s capital, Bucharest, on a mission expected to last several weeks.
According to NATO’s spokeswoman Oana Lungescu, AWACS aircraft, which belong to a fleet of 14 usually based in Germany, are “capable of detecting planes hundreds of kilometers away, making them a key capability for NATO’s deterrence and defense posture.”
Each AWACS aircraft can typically stay in the air for eight and a half hours at an altitude of 9,000 meters (30,000 feet). In Addition, it can monitor an area as large as Poland while flying and increase its flight time by air-to-air refueling.
Around 180 military personnel will be stationed at Romania’s Otopeni Air Base to support NATO’s AWACS aircraft.....More Below

Caracas has accused the US of seeking to overthrow the government under the guise of an anti-drug campaign
The US could begin land strikes targeting alleged Venezuela-linked drug operations “pretty soon,” President Donald Trump has said, while claiming to have almost completely stopped narcotics inflow by sea. Venezuela has vehemently denied having any links to drug cartels.
Speaking to reporters at the White House on Friday, Trump claimed Venezuela-linked maritime drug trafficking had dropped by 92%, saying US forces were “knocking out drugs at levels that nobody’s ever seen before.” “We knocked out 96% of the drugs coming in by water,” he added, later asserting, “It's going to be starting on land pretty soon.”
The US leader, however, provided no details on potential targets or the scope of the operation.
