Russia’s long-range bombers continue their routine patrol flights over the Arctic Ocean. Interfax quotes the Air Force’ official spokesman Vladimir Drik as saying that two Russian TU-95 strategic bombers shadowed six NATO fighters during a patrol mission on Tuesday. Russian planes fly patrols over neutral water in the Black Sea, the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans, the spokesman said. He added that all flights were performed in strict compliance with international rules without intruding into other countries’ air space.
