On Monday, the U.S. announced that 2 long-range aircraft flying over the Middle East. They practiced the tactics of bombardment of the region against the background of growing tension in relations with Iran. As told by the commander of the aircraft of the Central command of the U.S. armed forces, Lieutenant-General Aleksus Grinkevich, the US air force had worked out joint actions with the allies for the transfer to the middle East bombers.
As the General said, the threats the United States and its partners in the middle East will not go unanswered. Who refers to the number of potential adversaries of Washington in the middle East, the General is not explained, but it's obvious: the main danger for American interests here comes from Iran.

Earlier, the US state Department has accused Iran's non-constructive position, although the foreign Ministry of the Islamic Republic said it had not received an official response from Washington for an extended Tehran's demands.
With regard to the actions of American military aviation in the middle East, not so long ago the US air force struck Iranian-backed Shiite militias in Syria. General Grinkevich said that the United States remains committed "to regional stability", which is understood as a confrontation, and Iran, and radical Sunni groups in Syria, Lebanon and Yemen.
This time the exercise was attended by the US air force aircraft, UK, Kuwait and Saudi Arabia. But the main participants of the maneuvers, of course, was two bombers of the U.S. air force B-52H Stratofortress.
The aircraft was launched from a military air base Fairford in England and flew over the Eastern Mediterranean, the Arabian Peninsula and the Red sea. Then they left the region. In the logistics of the exercise, according to the American command, was involved in the army's 16 States – allies of the US.
