Germany did not deny UK access to its airspace, says UK PM's spokesman

Germany did not deny access to its airspace for British planes delivering weapons to Ukraine, a spokesman for British Prime Minister Boris Johnson said on Monday, adding London was doing everything possible to support Kyiv. The spokesman said Johnson told his cabinet team of top ministers that Britain was "doing everything possible to support the Ukrainian people in the face of a disinformation campaign from Russia aimed at undermining its sovereign neighbour".

"It is not accurate to say Germany denied access to its airspace ... I am simply not getting into speculation about why certain flight paths were chosen on military flights."
