US Flies Stratofortress Nuclear-Capable Bomber, F-35 Jets Near Russian Border

"Pentagon sent a US Air Force B-52H Stratofortress strategic bomber and a formation of
supporting fighter jets over
Estonian airspace, very close to Russia's doorstep.
Crucially the large bomber is capable of carrying nuclear weapons, and reports say the accompanying F-35A Lightning II fighter jets approached the Russian border during the flight." ZeroHedge

Latest US Strike Killed Brother Of Syrian Government Minister

"The US has continued carrying out airstrikes against Syria’s Idlib Governorate’s Harem
District, near the Tel al-Karama refugee camp this weekend, targeting and killing Wasim Tahsin Bayraqdar, who they described as a “senior leadership facilitator” for the al-
Qaeda-linked Hurras al-Din.
This latest attack is perhaps an even bigger deal because Bayraqdar is the brother of Samer Bayraqdar, who is the Syrian government’s current Religious Endowments Minister. The ministry ensures that endowments are used properly for the maintaining of mosques and to help pay for religious education." ZeroHedge
