The British destroyer Defender, which at the end of June passed near the Crimea in the area of Cape Fiolent, entered the Strait of Gibraltar, leaving the Black Sea. This is evidenced by the data of the Marine Traffic portal, which provides information about the movement of ships.
Earlier, a British destroyer crossed the state border of Russia in the northwestern part of the Black Sea, entering the territorial waters for three kilometers. The ship of the Black Sea Fleet sent a warning about the use of weapons in case of violation of the border, and then opened a warning fire and performed a warning bombing.
The UK claims that the ship made a peaceful passage through the territorial waters of Ukraine in accordance with international law. The incident caused a great international resonance.
