Japan scrambled fighter jets after Russian and Chinese aircraft conducted a coordinated patrol around its territory. Two Russian Tu-95 bombers joined two Chinese H-6s for a long joint flight, escorted by four J-16 fighters near Okinawa and Miyako. Additional Russian aircraft appeared in the region. Japan’s defence minister condemned the operation as a deliberate show of force threatening national security.
