Fluctuations in the positions of two rays propagating in a medium with random permittivity inhomogeneities are considered. The problem solution is based on the ray diffusion method. The density of probabilities for the difference in ray positions is obtained for the case when the initial distance between the rays is much smaller than the correlation radius of permittivity fluctuations.
