Russia releases VIDEO of British warship’s incursion into waters near Crimea, clearly contradicting London’s version of events — RT Russia & Former Soviet Union. Russia has released a video showing a coast guard vessel warning the HMS Defender that it was violating its state border and firing warning shots at the British warship, challenging London’s assertions about Wednesday's encounter.

It was the first interview Putin has given to a US network in nearly three years. During the full interview Putin dismissed the latest major accusations of mounting cyberattacks on US infrastructure as “farcical”. “Where is the proof?

The interview with prominent presenter Vladimir Solovyov on state television Rossia-1 came two days after news broke that Russia would take counter-measures in response to new sanctions passed by the U.S. Senate, which the White House has said President Donald Trump intends to sign.
