    Since the unprovoked and unjustified Russian invasion of Ukraine a month ago, our flying activities increased to monitor the situation in eastern Europe. What we do matters and makes a difference for our #NATO Allies. #WeAreNATO #WeAreAWACS

    The security level at NATO Air Base Geilenkirchen has returned to Bravo+. The temporary rise to Charlie was a precautionary measure to minimise potential risk to our organisation and personnel. All scheduled operations are proceeding as planned.

    @NATOAWACS conducted 493 surveillance flights in 2023. Since the start of Russia’s war in Ukraine, flights have increased, and our vigilance is even higher. As #NATO's reliable asset for over 40 years, #AWACS continues to provide precise and valuable information to Allies.
