Shortly after midnight, Russian fighter jets, bombers and refueling planes intercepted by US and Canada fighter jets. Motive unclear, but no altercation was necessary as the Russians turned and returned home after being intercepted.

There is already a thread about this. And this is a routine event that doesn't signify anything at all. Russia and the US have been playing these 'wargames' for at least a decade.

No sensationalism necessary.

This little game has been going on for several decades.
