The warship of the British Navy entered the Black Sea.

On the night of Monday to Tuesday, a British Navy warship crossed the Bosphorus and entered the Black Sea. According to Turkish media reports, after leaving the Bosphorus, the reconnaissance ship "Echo" headed north towards the Crimea, however, taking into account other information, the ship subsequently headed northwest, heading towards the coast of Ukraine.

There are no official comments on this matter either from the Russian Defense Ministry or from the command of the Russian Navy, but analysts have already called the appearance in the Black Sea of ​​a military reconnaissance ship of the British Navy the first signal that the West is exacerbating the situation in the region, especially since Britain showed no desire to send its warships to the Black Sea.

Experts do not exclude that the British warship may cause new provocations with the participation of the Ukrainian Navy, especially since it became known earlier that Ukrainian warships entered the open sea. Nevertheless, over the past few weeks, Russia has significantly increased the defense capability of the Crimea, transferring additional fighter and bomber aviation assets here, making air defense and anti-missile defense systems on alert, and also deploying coastal missile systems.
