Royal Air Force jets intercepted two Russian bombers flying over the English Channel.
Wednesday’s incident would be the latest in what NATO has said is an increase in Russian military flights near alliance members’ territory.
The British Typhoon jets intercepted the Russian bombers, capable of carrying nuclear weapons, south of Bournemouth, England, over the English Channel, according to CNN.
Two jets escorted the bombers for more about an hour and a half until the bombers left the area, the spokesman said.
