US Air Force intercepted 2 aircraft in restricted airspace near Mar-A-Lago on Sunday

U.S. Air Force fighter jets intercepted a civilian aircraft that entered restricted airspace over President Trump’s Mar-a-Lago estate in Florida on Sunday, violating a temporary flight restriction, according to NORAD.

This was the second such incident in 48 hours where F-16s from the Continental U.S. NORAD region responded to unauthorized flights over Palm Beach, NORAD stated. Since Trump’s inauguration on January 20, the agency has dealt with more than 20 such airspace violations in the area.

During the interception, the fighter jets deployed flares to signal and communicate with the pilot. The incident took place while Trump was at his golf course in West Palm Beach, according to a White House pool report.
