Two Russian bombers intercepted by Belgian F-16s, handed over to RAF. Intercepted near
Dutch airspace on their way to the UK apparently. Nothing in British press yet I see.
Obviously not a sign of any imminent danger, but still a concern how it is starting to look more and more like the Cold War era lately. Honestly wouldn't be shocked if there were a conventional war in Europe within the next 5 years.
