LIVE | Russia Fires Shots Near UK: English Channel Tensions Rise, Defence Officials Warn | Putin
NATO-Russia tensions are rising as Britain and Moscow remain locked in a deepening standoff over Ukraine. British officials reportedly fear an unintended naval incident could trigger a wider confrontation with Russia, while UK military leaders are pushing to restore direct contact with Russian counterparts. Moscow has branded Britain an “unfriendly” state and accused London of escalating tensions through military support for Kyiv. The UK has supplied Ukraine with Storm Shadow cruise missiles, while a recent naval incident involving warning shots near a British yacht added to concerns over miscalculation. Despite strained ties, a UK-Russia military hotline remains operational.
