Russian strategic bombers reportedly practice nuclear missile strike against US The Washington Free Beacon reported Monday that a pair of Russian bomber jets reportedly practiced cruise missile attacks against targets in the United States last week. Two Russian bombers were tracked flying over the Labrador Sea last week in the northern Atlantic Ocean near Iceland, Greenland and Canada as part of a recent training mission. “Analysis of the flight indicated the aircraft were conducting practice runs to a pre-determined ‘launch box’ — an optimum point for firing nuclear-armed cruise missiles at US targets,” Russian military plane circles HMCS Toronto in Black Sea According to Canada’s minister of national defense, Russia’s military acted in an “unnecessarily provocative” manner when its aircraft circled a Canadian ship in the Black Sea on Sunday. “The acts perpetrated by Russia were unnecessarily provocative and are likely to increase tensions further,”. The ship was circled by one surveillance plane and two fighter jets, according to the defense minister’s office. https://youtube/watch?v=CZNchhsNG5w&feature=youtube_gdata_player
