U.S. recon plane intercepted "unsafely" by Chinese jets

The Pentagon said the incident was an unsafe intercept and was "being reviewed," AP reported.

According to a U.S. military official "the two Chinese J-11 fighters flew out to intercept the U.S. EP-3 Aries aircraft and came so close that they forced the pilot to descend a couple hundred feet in order to avoid a collision."

The agency said that the U.S. surveillance plane was conducting "routine operations in the region."
