Something big just happened as Russia has carried out one of its most dangerous provocations in years — and it happened in UK waters. In this episode, Pyotr Kurzin breaks down the alarming incident involving the Yantar, a Russian vessel long suspected of spying on Britain’s undersea cables, and now accused of using lasers against RAF pilots.
This isn’t a one-off. It’s part of a much larger pattern of Russian grey-zone warfare — testing NATO’s patience, probing UK defences, and mapping the very infrastructure that keeps Europe connected to the world. From undersea cables carrying trillions in financial transactions to decades of covert naval activity, the Yantar incident exposes a deeper and increasingly reckless strategy unfolding beneath the surface.
In this video l explain why this moment matters, how it fits into a decade of Russian provocations across Europe, and why the UK’s muted responses risk sending exactly the wrong message to the Kremlin. As tensions rise, Britain and NATO must decide whether to keep reacting… or finally draw a line Moscow cannot ignore.
