UK Navy escorts two Chinese ships
Aug 11, 2024
London [UK], August 11: A Royal Navy warship kept a close eye on two Chinese vessels as they sailed through the English Channel on their way to and from Russian Navy Day celebrations.
Plymouth-based HMS Richmond monitored the Chinese Jiaozuo and Honghu ships as they passed the UK twice in three weeks, on their journey to St Petersburg and back.
HMS Richmond took over surveillance of the Jiaozuo, a 7,500-ton destroyer, and Honghu, a 23,400-ton supply ship, from the French Commandant Blaison ship, and then passed on monitoring duties to the Belgian navy patrol ship Pollux.
HMS Richmond then resumed monitoring two weeks later as the Chinese vessels headed towards the Dover Strait on their way back. (DPA)
