As F-16.net says
“A source at NATO would only confirm that the comments had come from a US diplomat, but did not know which of the nations had been affected.
However an official with the European Air Traffic Agency was later to have said that an F-16 from the Belgian Air Force had sustained damage.

F-16s from several member states are in Europe participating in exercises. Turkish jets are at Laage, Germany participating in ‘Brilliant Ardent’. Dutch, Norwegian and Polish units are at Leeurwarden, The Netherlands participating in ‘Frisian Flag’.”
