"The Alaskan Region of NORAD detected, tracked, positively identified, and intercepted four Russian aircraft entering and operating within the Alaska Air Defense Identification Zone on February 13, 2023,” NORAD said in a statement on Tuesday.

According to the statement, the Russian aircraft was still in international airspace. The statement added that Russian action in the region is routine and is neither seen as provocative nor a threat by the US.

On Sunday, US Congressman Jack Bergman said that the US shot down unknown flying objects over lake Huron on Sunday, right near the border with Canada, marking the fourth taken down over North America in less than two weeks.
