RAF Typhoons intercepted Russian military planes approaching NATO airspace.
British Typhoons were called into action on two separate occasions this week after Russian aircraft approached NATO airspace.
Two RAF Typhoons, based out of Malbork airbase in Poland, were scrambled to intercept a Russian Ilyushin Il-20M intelligence aircraft over the Baltic Sea last Tuesday.
On Thursday, another two Typhoons scrambled from the base, to intercept an unknown aircraft leaving Kaliningrad air space and close to Nato airspace.
The Typhoons are part of a six-strong fleet that was only posted to Poland three weeks ago.
The UK Ministry of Defence (MoD) confirmed Royal Airforce involvement in both interceptions during the past week.
The interceptions come amid ongoing Ukraine peace negotiations between the US and Russia.
