Conflict News founder Kyle Glen said that British warplanes delivering weapons to Kiev to strengthen the defense capability of the Ukrainian army, heading to Ukraine, fly around German airspace. He posted this information on his Twitter..

As evidence, Glen tweeted Flight Radar data that shows that British military aircraft are indeed forced to make a detour around German territory..

Also, Glen, in a published message, wonders if this inconvenient route from a logistical point of view is caused by a direct German ban on aircraft delivering military aid to Ukraine, which Germany actively opposes..

“Tonight, a second RAF C-17 aircraft is heading towards Ukraine, both deliberately avoiding German airspace. I wonder if Germany is denying access to its airspace when flying with weapons for Ukraine,” Glen wrote..

Today, Germany's position regarding the ban on the supply of weapons to Ukraine was confirmed by German Foreign Minister Annalena Berbock during her visit to Kiev.

Recall that Germany exercised its veto power and blocked the transfer of anti-drone rifles purchased through the NATO Support and Procurement Agency (NSPA) to Ukraine.. It was about large-caliber sniper rifles Barrett M82 (90 pcs.. ) and anti-drone systems EDM4S-UA (20 pcs. German Bild wrote that Merkel may be personally involved in blocking supplies.
