A Russian spy ship on the edge of U.K. waters pointed lasers at British pilots for the first time in a "deeply dangerous” escalation. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2025/11/20/world/russian-spy-ship-british-pilots/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #worldnews #russia #uk #espionage

@thejapantimes

Pointing a laser at the cockpit of an aircraft in flight, especially one flying at night, can be lethal.

There's no excuse for doing that during peacetime, especially where the aircraft were observing a ship in int'l waters adjacent to their home waters.
