The Kiev-based Ukrainian Independent Information Agency reported on Wednesday the United States has increased its troop presence along the Russian border.
The statement was issued in response to an accusation made by the Russian National Center for Control of Defense that NATO and U.S. Air Force flights have violated Russian airspace.

According to Lieutenant-General Mikhail Mizintsev, head of the Russian Defense Ministry’s joint military command center, Russian fighters flew over 300 missions in response to NATO aircraft.
