A Royal Navy warship is tracking two Russian naval vessels as they head through the English Channel with tensions strained as Boris Johnson met with Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelensky amid what they called an "ongoing Russian aggression".
Russia has built up more than 100,000 troops on the border with Ukraine leading the West to fear an invasion while Vladimir Putin has said that they are simply taking part in military exercises.
At the same time on Monday the French military said that it had monitored two Russian ships, the Soobrazitelniy and the Stoykiy, and had now handed over the responsibility to HMS Argyle, a Type 23 frigate, and the US Navy's USS Roosevelt.
