Egypt Military Dismisses Rumors of Israeli F-35 Overflights
(Al-Ahram-Egypt) The Egyptian military on Tuesday denied online reports that Israeli F-35 military planes on Monday had trespassed on Egyptian airspace as "lies and disinformation." It said the aircraft that had broken the sound barrier over Cairo belonged to the Egyptian Air Force and had been testing the country's air-defense systems. Egypt noted that the advanced F-35s were not even in use yet by the U.S. Air Force, and would not be available to Israel's air force before 2016.
