Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi used Pakistani airspace on Saturday for his return flight to New Delhi from Poland, as reported by 24NewsHD TV channel.
Modi was on a three-day visit to Poland and Ukraine to strengthen relations with President Volodymyr Zelensky. On his way back, his aircraft flew through Pakistani airspace, according to sources in the Civil Aviation Authority (CAA). The Indian Prime Minister’s plane was within Pakistani airspace from 10:15 am to 11:01 am, passing over Lahore before entering Indian airspace.
It is noteworthy that during his trip to Italy for the G20 Summit in 2021, Prime Minister Modi’s special VVIP flight also utilized Pakistani airspace. On the return journey, the aircraft again flew over Pakistan after obtaining formal permission from Islamabad.
During that trip, Prime Minister Modi’s plane, a Boeing 777, 300ER, designated as K7066, entered Pakistani airspace from Bahawalpur, passing over Turbat and Panjgur, before proceeding to Italy via Iran and Turkey.
