BRUSSELS, Jan 16 (Reuters) - Two Norwegian F-35s stationed in Poland were deployed on Wednesday in response to a "massive number of airborne Russian aircraft" entering Polish air space, NATO's air command said on Thursday on social media platform X.

It was the first time Norway's F35s had been used in Polish airspace after they were sent there last December.
