The United States military flew two B-1B bombers over Guam this week alongside the South Korean and Japanese militaries as a show of force directed toward North Korea.

"Two U.S. Air Force B-1B bombers, under the command of U.S. Pacific Air Forces, joined their counterparts from the Republic of Korea and Japanese air forces in sequenced bilateral missions," a Pacific Air Forces press release said.
The bombers flew over the area on Monday in a 10-hour long demonstration.
B-1 bomber presence in the region is not new, however. The U.S. military has kept the bombers in the area for over a decade.
