A cutting-edge surveillance plane used by Canadian special forces flew over the Freedom Convoy protest in Ottawa despite a military directive against such overflights.

The Canadian military issued a directive on Jan. 27 saying its vehicles and personnel should avoid the downtown Ottawa protest and the Royal Canadian Air Force shouldn’t fly over it, reported the Ottawa Citizen.
