TOKYO, Dec 11 - U.S. nuclear-capable bombers flew over the Sea of Japan with Japanese fighter jets, Tokyo said on Thursday, a show of force after ‍Chinese ​and Russian military drills in the skies ‍and seas around Japan and South Korea.

Videos uploaded to social media showed four planes, one large and three small flying in formation, leading to much confusion.
