The Russian Defense Ministry has released a video of the interception by a pair of Russian Air Force Sukhoi Su-27s of an RAF Boeing RC-135W in flight over the Black Sea.

The video would have been shot this morning and would refer to the RAF Rivet Joint with registration number ZZ664 which operated over the Black Sea today escorted by two Typhoons in what is a usual mission in the last few months.

At the moment the British Ministry of Defense has not released any statement.
