China and Russia Hold Naval War Games as U.S. Deploys B-52s and Stealth Fighters to South Korea
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Russia and China have kicked off a week of naval exercises in the East
China Sea, including live-fire missile and artillery drills. The war
games began one day after the U.S. Air Force flew nuclear-capable B-52
bombers and stealth fighter jets to South Korea for joint drills, and
after North Korea test-fired two medium-range ballistic missiles over
the weekend.
