Might be a silly question but can it not just fly over Hungary? I don't think Hungary would really try to shoot down a plane carrying weapons for Ukraine, right?

Fact is that the weapons are partly transported by Hungarian C-17 planes. Hungary EU and NATO member and executes her duties, but if possible I think it is OK to try to reduce risks.

Hungary needs to provide air corridor in this case, which is something they are luckily reluctant to do.
