A plane carrying US defence secretary Pete Hegseth made an emergency landing in Britain on Wednesday after a crack was discovered in the aircraft’s windshield.
Hegseth was returning to the United States from a Nato defence ministers meeting in Brussels when the plane made the unscheduled stop at an airport in Britain, a Pentagon spokesperson said.
“The plane landed based on standard procedures and everyone onboard, including Secretary Hegseth, is safe,” Pentagon spokesman Sean Parnell confirmed on social media.
Hegseth responded, “All good. Thank God. Continue mission!”
At the Nato meeting, he urged member countries to provide more military aid to Ukraine in its fight against Russia.
