This morning at 09:26 CEST an Italian Air Force Gulfstream E.550 CAEW (reg. MM62293 – callsign PERSEO71) left Pratica di Mare AB to carry out a new surveillance mission.
The aircraft is now orbiting over eastern Romania. From this area the aircraft can monitor Moldova (with particular attention to the Russian-controlled region of Transinistria) and much of south-western Ukraine.
