Joint China-Russia Bomber Patrol Sends Japanese, South Korean Jets Scrambling

[Starmix]

According to the report, Russian and Chinese military forces have carried out a joint bomber patrol over the East China Sea and western Pacific, flying close to Japanese and South Korean air-defence zones.

The report said that two Russian Tu-95 bombers and two Chinese H-6 bombers, along with additional fighter jets and support aircraft, undertook a long-range flight, prompting both the Japan Air Self-Defense Force and the South Korea Air Force to scramble jets.

Though the aircraft did not violate national airspace, their entry into the wider air-defence zones was viewed as a show of force, heightening geopolitical tensions in the region

Russia and China are increasingly behaving like bullies.
Tragic that they are both permanent members of the UN Security Council.

These two communists countries are problems of the world. They are hard to impress and negotiate. What they have done was assaulting Japan and South Korean fighters.
