In a recent incident, fighter jets were deployed to address a breach of restricted airspace near President Joe Biden’s home in Wilmington, Delaware, following a violation by a civilian aircraft. The occurrence, which unfolded on a Saturday afternoon, is now under investigation.
According to Anthony Guglielmi, the Chief of Communications for the United States Secret Service, the breach occurred shortly after 2 p.m. when a civilian aircraft entered restricted airspace located north of Wilmington, Delaware. The fighter jets were promptly scrambled in response to this security breach, serving as a precautionary measure. Fortunately, the unauthorized aircraft safely landed at a nearby airport.
Importantly, this incident did not disrupt the president’s movements in any way. It serves as a testament to the security protocols and measures in place to safeguard the president and his residence.
