British yacht owners Jane and Alan Kelvey say a Russian warship fired warning shots at their yacht in the English Channel and insist they did nothing wrong, according to multiple reports. The couple describe the incident as occurring on Tuesday and say the Admiral Grigorovich did not communicate with them via radio. They also assert that the warship was not broadcasting its GPS location. The reports describe the couple’s position that they were operating legally and that they were not aware of the warship in a way that would explain the firing. The outlets also present that the couple have called for clarity over what communications, navigation information, or signals were available at the time. While details vary in emphasis across accounts, they consistently attribute the key claims to the Kelveys: that there was a lack of radio communication from the Russian ship and that they believe their navigation was not the cause of the shots. The reports frame the incident as an allegation of hostile or unsafe action by the warship, with the couple maintaining their conduct was appropriate.
