Putin playing chess again lol:
Two RAF fighters triggered a sonic boom across a large area of South East England when they intercepted a foreign aircraft which was "causing concern".
The Typhoons were scrambled to escort a Russian-made Antonov An-26 cargo airliner from Latvia into Stansted Airport.
One Twitter user who monitors aircraft radio traffic claimed on Twitter: "I have just heard a warning go out 'if you do not respond to my orders immediately you will be shot down.'"
Police later said that the incident occurred as a result of a "loss of communication with the aircraft". Having spoken to the three passengers on board they agreed that the plane could continue its journey to Birmingham.
Residents across a large radius of South East England were alerted to the incident when they heard an explosion-like sound at around 16.40 on Wednesday. The noise was reported in Kent, West Sussex, Hertfordshire and Essex.
