IBTimes: Egypt Anti-ISIS Fight: Israeli Airspace Violated As Egyptian Warplanes Battle Sinai Affiliate Of Islamic State Group
Egyptian fighter jets have crossed into Israeli airspace several times in the last few months as its military continues to battle a militant insurgency in its northern Sinai region. The airspace violations were believed to be the first since the 1973 Arab-Israeli war, and did not elicit a response from Israel’s military, the Times of Israel reported Wednesday.
Israeli officials reportedly labeled the violations “minor,” and it’s possible they were coordinated with the Israeli Defense Forces, according to Ynetnews. The flights were mostly in a triangular border area that connects Israel, Gaza and Egypt.
WNU Editor: It looks like the Israelis are now permitting the Egyptians to conduct these raids using their airspace. I guess destroying the Islamic State is more important to Israel than Egyptian violations of Israeli airspace.
