- A large multinational exercise designed to help Ukraine deal with the threat of Russian sea mines is taking place off the coast of northwest Scotland.
Hosted by the Royal Navy, two Ukrainian minehunters are involved in Exercise Sea Breeze along with ships from five Nato countries including France, Germany and Estonia, plus personnel from 13 allied nations.
Russia is believed to have laid more than 500 naval mines in the Black Sea as part of President Vladimir Putin's efforts to blockade Ukrainian ports.

It’s also in Turkeys direct interest to be able to navigate the black sea
Slava Ukraini 🇺🇦 from 🇦🇺
Was not aware that Britain is helping build the Ukrainian Navy, by transferring Navy ships to Ukraine.
Me neither, just reading that the Sanddown Class Minehunters (of which the RN had 12, and now only 1 in service) are to be replaced with 3 Offshore Support Vessels (OSV) which will acts as "Motherships" for autonomous mine-hunting boats.
All Ukraine needs now is to negotiate a bit of coast line when it concedes to Russia.
@antique-bs8bb yer right. Who's universe are you in. Remember the Moskva
@@harryflower1810The Moskva was sunk as a result of Russia not fully recognising that the Ukraine war was really one between itself and Nato with Ukraine acting as a proxy Nato allied military. Ukraine could not have sunk that warship without U.S. led Nato direct assistance. It was a wake up call to Russia.
@@richardmarsden5610 I think you must still be asleep then Ivan because you've lost a hell of a lot more ships and a Submarine since then.
Also the Moskva was sunk with totally Ukrainian made missiles, no NATO input for that sinking.
🇺🇦🇬🇧
I'm pretty confident that a mine does not kill silently.
THE ROYAL NAVY!
-Trying to regain relevance since 1899.
Why did your map not show Crimea as part of Ukraine? Playing into the hands of ruzzian propagandists is bad form.
Das good.
Strength and Honour
Europe's greatest nations. Slava Ukraini
based, long live the black sun
✌️
Stop the boats
Silly little boy. FO and post on a thread that is not so serous about NATO defence
:KABLAM: "They are the sea's...:KABLAM: silent killers..." :KABLAM:
Why do we always have to have Yanks involved? These are ex RN minesweepers with Ukraine crews in Scotland being trained by the RN.
So we get two Yanks gobbling off and the one RN officer?
Lol, Russia would not be placing mines for someone with no navy, ukraine would place mines for the Russian navy though...does no one understand that? Why would Russia place mines for no ships? Only the west thinks like that. 😂😂😂
Russia has mined the Ukrainian coast to prevent grain exports. Mine hunting is a dangerous game, defusing one on the beach would fill your pants at least with these two old vessels they can bring the mines to the surface and then destroy them.
Um, drone boats brUh.
@robertnewhart3547 drone boats are mines? What are you even saying?
@@tylerdurden4006 A mine is a static device placed on or under the ground or water. Drone boats carry explosives and are mobil so basically a torpedo
@stevencharnock9271 duh, congrats on knowing the difference between mines and drone boats, however. This story is about mines and not drone boats...what are you even talking about?
This is the age of autonomous drones, why not build an unmanned ship?
They need somewhere to operate from.
@@stevebarlow3154 it's better for them to operate a very long way away like the other side of the planet, not floating in a plastic boat in the middle of a mine field.
I seem to remember Ukrainian forces laid most of the mines to block Russian access
The British supplied minesweepers would be sunk if they get anywhere near the Black Sea.
So will who ever trys COMMUNIST TROLL YOUR TIME IS COMING HAHAHAHHAHAHAHHA
Tks
Cda.
you're so funny..most if not all of the mines are Ukrainian though..Ukrainian navy is not active at all
I feel sorry for the Ukrainians being trained by one of the worst counter mine services in the world.
Back under your bridge little troll but watch out for the mines...
Oil pipe line who did it ?
The U.S. would be my guess after sleepy Joe said they would do whatever it takes to stop nordstream.
Deflection- who just did it?
Russia against a 32 alliance and Russia is STLL winning the war.
A super power vs 1 poor eastern european nation and it cant even take Kyiv.
If you really believed it was fighting NATO you would be asking for it to attack NATO bases. Which it hasn't, because NATO isnt fighting. Its just giving some weapons and ammo, and apparently thats enough to stop Russia lol.
Z
Ah, yes. Two years and four-months into their three-day Special Military Operation.
Russia can’t even beat one of the poorest countries in Europe lol I highly doubt Russia would be able to do anything at all the only thing that gives Russia relevance is the same as North Korea, nukes beside that they can’t even beat a poor country with a economy smaller than Russia most nato countries have larger economies than Russia it wouldn’t go well it’d just be overwhelmed by air you the place where Russia doesn’t even have air superiority this far into war against a country that doesnt even have a significant airforce
Yeah, they're rapidly advancing aren't they, really bordering on taking kyiv aren't they... oh wait
This is silly. We all remember that it was Ukrainian mines that cused risks to shipping whereas Russian mines have been monitored throughout and will be cleared by Russia at an appropriate time.
Or is someone having a joke about Ukraine actually winning this????
I think someone’s writing a joke about Russia being competent enough to bother clearing their mines like they’re some law abiding internationally respected country
How're you gonna clear the mines? Teach conscripted junkies to swim?
At least make an effort Russian troll. No one believes you anymore.
@@aperson673 oh dear - you do know Ukraine is in a desperate US/Nato lead mess and Russia winning comfortably - if not you are in for a big big shock (but 9/10 people in the world know this already)
@@hoilst265 conscripted Junkies - jare you still on the weird idea that Russia ses junkies and Ukraine uses expert nato trained troops - how distant from reality can you get?
