White House condemns ‘unsafe and unprofessional’ intercept after Russian plane collides with Reaper drone over Black Sea
said the collision happened just after 7am on Tuesday, when two Russian Su-27 fighter jets flew up to the MQ-9 Reaper drone over international waters west of Crimea. The statement said the Russian pilots sought to disrupt the US aircraft before the collision.The White House said the drone’s downing was unique and would be raised directly by state department officials with their Russian counterparts.
The ministry said fighters from its air defence forces were raised into the air to identify the drone, which the ministry said was heading “in direction of the state border of the Russian Federation”.But he declined to say whether Russia was seeking the wreckage so that its military intelligence could dissect it.
At least one person was killed and three people were injured in shelling of Kramatorsk, in the Donetsk region,six high-rise buildings were damaged
