UK Ministry Denies Claims As British Destroyer Violates Russia’s Border in Black Sea [Twitter]

The UK Ministry of Defense says, commenting on Moscow’s statement on the illegal border crossing by the British destroyer Defender, that no warning shots were fired, and emphasized that the vessel did not violate international law.

No warning shots have been fired at HMS Defender.

The Royal Navy ship is conducting innocent passage through Ukrainian territorial waters in accordance with international law.

Maybe Russia should do naval exercises in the sea between England and Ireland. It is international waters most of it.
