Russia’s Foreign Intelligence Service (SVR) released a statement on Monday, claiming British intelligence agencies are ready to launch a false flag operation on the Russian “Shadow Fleet” of old oil tankers the Kremlin uses to avoid sanctions.
“The British special services plan to use NATO allies to deploy a mass raid on the ‘shadow fleet…’ The plan provides for the organization of a major sabotage, the damage from which will make it impossible to declare the transportation of Russian oil a threat to all international shipping,” the document stated.
