KEILAR: We have some breaking news coming to us from the Pentagon. CNN is learning that a Russian fighter jet flew dangerously close to a U.S. Navy plane over the Black Sea. CNN's Ryan Browne is joining me from the Pentagon. What happened here?</s>RYAN BROWNE, CNN PENTAGON REPORTER: Brianna, defense officials telling me that this U.S. Navy P-3 surveillance plane was intercepted by a Russian military jet. And that U.S. officials are deeming this intercept to be unsafe, partly because of the proximity. It flew within five feet. But also because of some of the jet wash and other actions that the intercept caused, which forced the Navy plane to end its mission prematurely. The Black Sea is where both U.S. and Russia both maintain a relatively active military presence. That's where a lot of these intercepts tend to take place. The last intercept happening in November. Back to you.</s>KEILAR: Ryan Browne, at the Pentagon, thank you so much. Still ahead, it is a controversial memo putting the White House at odds with its own Justice Department. Who it names, when it could be released to the public, next.
