Russian Fighter Jets Harass US Drones in Dramatic Video
The US military has released video footage showing Russian fighter jets "harassing" American military drones over eastern Syria. The encounter, labeled as "unsafe and unprofessional behavior," involved Russian jets dropping parachuted flares in front of the drones and using afterburners to impede their operations. This incident is part of a series of provocative flights by Russian jets over eastern Syria, prompting the US to deploy F-22 Raptors to deter such actions. The US Air Force general in the Middle East called on Russia to cease this "reckless behavior" that threatens the safety of both US and Russian forces.
