NORAD Tracks Russian Military Aircraft Detected along Alaska's Coast

Government says, the activity "is not seen as a threat"

The U.S. detected and tracked Russian military aircraft that entered the Air Defense Identification Zone (ADIZ) off Alaska on Monday, the U.S. military said.

The ADIZ is an area that stretches out 150 miles from U.S. territory, where the U.S. requires aircraft to have their transponders on or to identify themselves.

"This Russian activity in Alaskan ADIZ occurs regularly and is not seen as a threat," the North American Aerospace Defense Command said in a press release.
