Description
A NATO surveillance plane lands in Romania in order to bolster the allied presence on the eastern flank of the alliance and monitor Russia's military activity. Two more surveillance planes, AWACS planes (Airborne Warning and Control System), are also expected to arrive in the capital Bucharest and conduct missions in the next several weeks. The aircraft belongs to a fleet of 14 NATO surveillance aircraft usually based in Geilenkirchen, Germany, and "can detect aircraft hundreds of kilometres away", according to NATO. Around 180 military personnel are also being deployed at the same Romanian airbase in Bucharest. IMAGES AND SOUNDBITES
