British couple describe moment Russian warship fired warning shots near them | BBC News

Описание: A retired British couple who were on a yacht which had warning shots fired near it by a Russian warship in the English Channel on Tuesday have described the "surreal" experience to BBC Newsnight.

Jane and Alan Kelvey were sailing 23 miles off the coast of the Isle of Wight on Tuesday morning when they came into close contact with a Russian frigate, the Admiral Grigorovich.

The warship fired into the UK-registered yacht's path, in what the Ministry of Defence has described as an "isolated incident" and not linked to the seizure of a Russian shadow fleet tanker in the Channel on Sunday.
