There seems to be considerable disinformation going on here

In a separate statement, Britain's defense ministry said it believed the "Russians were undertaking a gunnery exercise in the Black Sea and provided the maritime community with prior-warning of their activity."

It added: "No shots were directed at HMS Defender and we do not recognise the claim that bombs were dropped in her path."

Methinks this is an old game though: https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-38745364

Jan 2017 The Ministry of Defence said that at 12:30 GMT on Wednesday, the returning Russian ships were off the coast of Dover.

A Navy spokesman said the British craft were deployed to "provide reassurance to the nations which border the North Sea and English Channel".

He added: "Remaining at a respectful distance, but keeping the Russian warships clearly visible, Royal Navy sailors keep watch on every movement through their binoculars and use state-of-the-art radars to track the course and speed of the ships incl. Russia's only aircraft carrier: as they pass close to the UK."

England should just claim the entire English Channel as China does the South China Seas, denying free passage and really piss off the commie bastards...precedent having been established by China!!??
