Moscow and the air raids over the Bering Strait: “Routine Flights”

For its part, the Russian Defense Ministry said yesterday that two Tu-95-MS strategic bombers flew for seven hours over the neutral waters of the Bering Strait and two Tu-160 supersonic strategic bombers conducted a scheduled 13-hour flyover over the waters. the Barents Sea and the Norwegian Sea.

Four Russian aircraft were “identified, tracked, positively identified and intercepted” by the North American Aerospace Defense Command (NORAD) yesterday. Norad himself announced this via Twitter, emphasizing that the 4 Moscow planes “were located in the Alaska Air Defense Identification Zone on February 13”. The Russian planes, writes NORAD, stayed in international airspace and did not invade US or Canadian airspace.

These are two pairs of Tu-95 Bear and Su-35 fighter-bombers, followed by NATO F-16 and F-35. At least 15 of these raids are recorded each year and are therefore considered routine, even if the conflict in Ukraine has made them more popular news for the past year.

Meanwhile, the Russians are intensifying their raids near the borders of Europe and the United States, a common practice to test defense response times, but one that takes on greater prominence at this time.

Meanwhile, American support for US arms sales to Ukraine is weakening: According to a poll by the Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research, 48% of respondents support arms sales, up from 66% last May, less than three months after the war began . The poll, the Guardian reports, also shows that 29% of respondents are opposed to arms sales, while 22% are neither for nor against. Americans are also divided on sending state funds to Kiev, with 37% in favor, 38% against, and 23% neither for nor against
