While such interactions are not rare between the United States and Russia, it comes at a particularly delicate time and a heightened concern about any accidents or miscalculations.

Russian aircraft came close to three US navy P-8A aircraft while they were flying in international airspace over the Mediterranean.

A US official, speaking on the condition of anonymity, said in one of the incidents, the Russian aircraft came within several feet of one of the US navy planes.
