From The Guardian's Today In Focus, this is The Latest with me, Nosheen Iqbal.

Dan Sabah, you're The Guardian's defence and security editor.

On Tuesday, we saw quite an interesting incident at sea.

A Russian warship firing warning shots within...

A few hundred meters of a British yacht with quite an unlikely presence on board, a retired couple who are out on the holidays, I think.

Now, the Russians claim the yacht was on a dangerous course towards their ship and that they made several attempts to contact it.

The couple say that this didn't happen.

What on earth is going on?

I mean, it won't surprise you that I'm not a naval expert, but even to me, it sounds quite unlikely or unusual that that warship was there in the first place.

Because it is, I mean, it's massive, right?

It's about 125 metres long.
