AceShowbiz - Two F-16 fighter jets were deployed to intercept two unauthorized civilian aircraft that entered restricted airspace near Donald Trump’s golf course in Bedminster, New Jersey, while he was present at the location.

NORAD confirmed that the military jets safely escorted the two general aviation planes out of the no-fly zone established over the resort. Officials emphasized that neither aircraft posed a threat during the incident. An investigation is underway to determine the reasons behind the airspace breach. NORAD reminded all pilots to carefully review Notices To Airmen and FAA temporary flight restrictions before flying in the area. Additional security measures include instructions for intercepted pilots to contact specific radio frequencies and reverse course until cleared.

Donald Trump was staying at his Bedminster golf club over the weekend, attending the final round of the LIV Golf New York event. The restricted airspace was put in place ahead of his arrival, and this is not the first time fighter jets have been scrambled to guard his vicinity. Earlier this year, F-16s deployed flares near Palm Beach International Airport hours before Trump’s departure, and in July, multiple general aviation aircraft entered restricted zones around Bedminster and East Rutherford, prompting several interceptions and flare deployments.

With Trump’s presence at the golf course drawing heightened security protocols, NORAD has indicated that U.S. Army ground-based air-defense systems may also be deployed as part of layered defenses in the area. The incident underscores the ongoing efforts to maintain strict airspace control around sensitive locations associated with the former president to prevent unauthorized incursions.
