A US RC-135W flew over the Korean Peninsula on Wednesday, and flew into the area over the Yellow Sea, which is between Korea and China. This is the most recent of several flights by the plane, which is meant to detect missile launches.
Likely, the reason for this is the upcoming Eighth Party Congress in North Korea, which is the sort of occasional where they might test-fire a missile system, and the US may be looking for signs of such preparations.
At the same time, the plane got quite close to Chinese airspace, and that may have been another opportunity for the Trump Administration to needle China, something they’ve been doing regularly.
South Korea’s military is reporting more US surveillance flights during this “transition period.” US B-1B bombers have also been deployed in the region.

Well, there is a U2 s “Dragon Lady” over the Med at the moment and a Boeing 135V Rivet Joint flying off the Crimean coast in the Black Sea.
I suppose the US thinks it can go anywhere it likes.
