we believe to make a point of showing its weapons lowdown. >> reporter: military officials say the incident, about 135 miles east of hainan island. and it's another sign of friction as americans and its allies clash with the russian and chinese over surveillance in the region. earlier this year, the u.s. moved two of its largest drones to japan. they're called global hawks and are used for surveillance. and last april, north of japan, a russian jet bused another u.s. plane designed to track radar signals. the russian pilot came within 100 feet that time, and again flashed its weapons at the american plane. so u.s. officials clearly see a pattern of pushbacks continuing with this more recent encounter. >> it's obviously a deeply concerning provocation, and we've communicated directly to the chinese government our objection to this type of action. >> reporter: the chinese have been conducting large-scale military drills and they've made it clear they consider the presence of american spy planes to be a provocation, suggesting even if those american planes are in international air space, they

barbara, first to you, the military advisers, give me the lowdown on what's happened. >> hi, ashleigh. first, the aid being dropped -- when ivan was on the iraqi helicopter flying at very low altitude, so you bet, they were basically tossing the aid out the door. what i think ben rhodes is talking about to some extend are the air drops by u.s. and british transport planes. parachute drops. they're able to see that that material is from these higher altitude planes safely to a very large extent getting to the people on the ground. one of the things ben rhodes said that is so interesting, he said, there will be no reintroduction of u.s. combat forces into iraq. that is essentially what president obama's pledge has been. no reintroduction into a combat role. that's a pretty significant choice of words there. they're not looking to go back into offensive combat operations. if combat comes to them through this humanitarian mission if they get attacked by isis, they certainly do have the right to defend themselves. will there be boots on the ground? there are already boots on the ground. so

our eamon javers now has the lowdown from washington. what's happening here, eamon?reporter: that's right, kelly. actually, it's 1.2 billion credentials, and that's a matching set of usernames and passwords, things like that that can be used to identify you on the internet. the company is called hold security. that's a cyber security firm that says it uncovered this cash. take a look at some of the details of what they found here. they are dubbing this new russian cyber criminal gang cyber vor, and vor means thief in russian. and these thieves allegedly robbed 420,000 web and ftp sites, scouring the entire internet to come up with this information. hold security says no evidence so far that they're massively exploiting this, but it could be a treasure trove for other hackers on the internet and they say they are using is it to send a lot of spam to people, so that may be part of what you're seeing in your inbox. guys, this is starting a discussion in the cyber community about whether or not it's time to move past the idea of passwords for security on the internet and

host: you are saying some of these increases to push minimum wage could result in a lowdown in hiring? guest: there are a lot of mandates, health care mandates and things like this have a make hiring more expensive. guest: first and foremost, having growth and better growth is good. but that is not the solution for workers necessarily, as all of our evidence would suggest. we have had lots of growth. we have had productivity growth, but workers' pay has been going down, even among college graduates. even among people we consider highly educated. the wage deficit in the last year -- i disagree with this, with the concern about the wages being composed too high among low-wage workers. last week the only group that held their ground were the workers at the very bottom. the only reason for that is that in states covering around 40% of the jobs, the minimum wage went up in the first half of 2014. everybody else saw their wages fall. did that hurt jobs? we know that jobs are disproportionately being created at the bottom. hey are not being stopped by the proposal of the minimum wage. what w
