The US Department of Defense (Pentagon) announced, on Tuesday, that 4 Russian fighter jets entered the US defense zone near Alaska, without violating US airspace, on Monday.
The ministry said it had sent fighter jets to intercept the Russian planes, in an incident officials described as a “routine encounter” not related to the series of UFOs shot down by the United States in recent days.
The North American Aerospace Defense Command said in a statement that the four Russian planes entered the US air defense zone on Monday, and remained outside US and Canadian airspace.
She explained that two American F-16s intercepted the Russian planes, as they approached them to warn them.
