The Royal Navy has deterred Russian submarines identified in the vicinity of undersea cables and other critical under water infrastructure. A Russian attack submarine and specialist submarines from Russian’s Main Directorate for Deep-Sea Research (Gugi), were involved in the operation. The vessels were designed to survey undersea infrastructure during peacetime and to sabotage it in conflict, defence secretary John Healey said today. The Ministry of Defence said that it would not confirm the nature of the cables in the vicinity of the Russian submarines. But Healey said that undersea communications cables were essential for digital communications that underpin international trade.
