Venezuela jets fly over Guyana border town

Social Share GEORGETOWN – Guyana said on Wednesday night that two Venezuelan fighter jets entered its airspace, circling a community on the countries’ shared border before returning to their own territory. The incident is the latest in a long-running border conflict between the two South American nations. Caracas says much of eastern Guyana is its own territory, a claim rejected by Georgetown. The conflict flared up in recent years as Guyana started developing oil reserves near the disputed area. Guyana’s Foreign Ministry said in a statement that two Venezuelan army Sukhoi SU 30 fighter jets flew over the community of Eteringbang and a nearby airstrip along the countries shared border at a “very low altitude of 1500 feet” on Tuesday at about 1:20 p.m. They circled once before flying back into Venezuela, the statement added.
