U.S. F-16s Intercept Russian Spy Planes Near Alaska for Consecutive Days

U.S. fighter jets intercepted a Russian spy plane near Alaska multiple times in recent days, with the aircraft remaining in international airspace and not entering U.S. or Canadian sovereign territory. This follows a pattern of Russian military activity in the Arctic and the Alaskan Air Defense Identification Zone, prompting regular U.S. military responses. The activity is considered routine surveillance rather than a threat.
