Several Russian SU-27 fighter jets escorted a group of French and U.S. warplanes over the Black Sea on Dec. 9, according to a video released on Friday by Russia’s Ministry of Defense.
The defense ministry said airspace control systems in the country “detected aerial targets flying towards the Russian border over international waters in the Black Sea,” according to a statement obtained by Russian news agency TASS.
“The planes were stopped from violating the Russian border,” it said. “After turning the foreign warplanes away from Russia’s border, the Russian fighter jets safely returned to their home airfield,” it added.
