Israeli aircraft violate Hungary airspace

Two Israeli military aircraft have been sighted flying at a low altitude over the Hungarian capital unbeknown to the country's defense ministry and the civilian and military secret services.

Hungarian Defense Minister Imre Szekeres on Friday urged follow-up action on the Wednesday flight over Budapest's international airport which was reported by the Magyar Nemzet newspaper, the German Press Agency DPA reported.

He said it is imperative by the regulations that the ministry be notified of such practices.

Reacting to the issue, Szekeres is to ask the central government to revive a Military Aviation Authority.

Prime Minister Gordon Bajnai has also demanded an immediate investigation into the matter.

The Israeli ambassador to Budapest Aliza Bin-Noun, though, claimed that the flight had been a "routine" one for which the National Transport Authority had issued the relevant permission.
