‘Venezuela has scrambled two F-16
fighter jets to ward off a US ‘military plane’ amid reports of
“US trespassing the country’s airspace.” President
Hugo Chavez has ordered the fighters to confront a US P-3 maritime
patrol aircraft that had purportedly violated Venezuela’s airspace,
Reuters quoted the Venezuelan president as saying on Friday.
“They are provoking us … these are
warplanes,” Chavez noted, showing a picture of the plane, which he
said, had taken off from US military bases on the Netherlands’
Caribbean islands and from neighboring Colombia on two separate
occasions.’
