A Russian spy ship has been spotted in the immediate vicinity of one of the key bases of the UK's nuclear submarines. This happened shortly after the completion of large-scale NATO exercises that took place in the North Atlantic and adjacent maritime areas.
Observers note that the appearance of a Russian reconnaissance vessel in the area may indicate Moscow's attempts to gather information about the movements and training of British strategic forces. This activity is causing concern among representatives of the British Defense Ministry and NATO allies.
The NATO exercises, which ended recently, included complex maneuvers involving submarines, ships and aircraft aimed at increasing readiness to repel potential threats in the region. Russian intelligence activities may be related to the analysis of the results of these exercises and the assessment of the capabilities of the alliance.
In response to the incident, the British military has increased security measures around the base and continues to closely monitor the movements of foreign vessels near its strategic facilities.
