Two Russian corvette class "Steregushchy" were intercepted by order of the commander of the British military fleet, when they appeared near the borders of Great Britain. So reported edition Express with reference to the commander of the frigate Royal Navy HMS Montrose Conor O'Neill. The article says that the British fleet intercepted "Putin's warships" in the North Sea. And for such actions the command of the United Kingdom was inspired by "strange" maneuvers by Russian crews.
"Having passed most of the North Sea, the ships greatly reduced their speed and slowly headed for the northern coast of Norfolk," the British officials said.. In fact, Russian ships moved along the coast of Denmark and Norway, when they were joined by HMS Montrose. The incident occurred last week and ended without consequences. However, the very actions of the British command can not but cause surprise. And this is not the first time when London raises the fleet and even aviation to intercept Russian ships. So, in May the passing Russian ship was accompanied by the destroyer HMS Diamond and the helicopter Wildcat.
