The Royal Navy and RAF have deployed warships and aircraft to shadow a group of four Russian military vessels passing through UK waters. This marks the third time in six weeks that Russian ships have been closely monitored while transiting the English Channel and North Sea. The Russian fleet, reportedly returning from Syria, was escorted by British Type 23 frigates, minehunters, and surveillance aircraft. The heightened military response comes amid growing tensions between Russia and Western nations, with discussions in London about potential peacekeeping efforts in Ukraine. The UK’s show of force underscores concerns over Russian naval movements near its territorial waters.
