Air Force (Air Force) The United States has scrambled fighter jets due to a civilian aircraft approaching the golf club of American President Donald Trump in Bedmenstere, New Jersey. This was reported on August 3 by the Fox News channel.

"Fighter jets took to the air to intercept a civilian aircraft after it entered the restricted airspace (TAR) over the Trump residence in Bedminster," the publication says.

It is noted that the pilot operating a civil aircraft entered the TAR zone on August 3 at 00:50 local time (07:50 Moscow time), and then was overtaken by US Air Force fighters, who took him out. According to the publication, the military used flares to attract the pilot's attention.
