Swedish spy plane flies along Russia’s border for second day

A Swedish Air Force Gulfstream S102B Korpen reconnaissance aircraft has flown over Finnish territory close to Russia's border for a second consecutive day, according to Russian media.

The aircraft took off from the Swedish Air Force base in Linköping before entering Finnish airspace and flying along the Finnish-Russian border from south to north.

It then carried out manoeuvres in the area of Murmansk Region.

Swedish Gulfstream aircraft are regularly used for reconnaissance missions near Russia's borders.
