A Russian warship, the Admiral Grigorovich, fired warning shots at a UK-registered yacht in the English Channel on Tuesday. Russia claims the yacht was making a “dangerous approach,” prompting the action. The incident occurred approximately 20 nautical miles south of the Isle of Wight, just outside of British territorial waters. The UK government has confirmed it is investigating the circumstances surrounding the event. Details regarding the yacht’s course and intentions remain unclear. No injuries have been reported, and the situation is currently under review by British authorities. FRANCE 24 is reporting from London on the developing story.
