The U.S. military released declassified footage that it says shows a Russian jet conducting 'an unsafe and unprofessional intercept' with a U.S. drone earlier this week.

The incident followed a "pattern of dangerous actions by Russian pilots while interacting with U.S. and Allied aircraft over international airspace," it added.But Joint Chiefs Chairman Mark Milley noted at a press conference that the remains had likely broken apart and sunk, adding that had been taken measures to prevent the loss of sensitive intelligence.
