UK shocked as Russian warship fires live rounds in English Channel

A Russian warship has carried out a live-firing exercise just miles off Plymouth. The actions of the Russian frigate Neustrashimy shocked authorities in the UK and France. Neustrashimy was being tracked at the time by Royal Navy Offshore Patrol Vessel HMS Tyne and a French military aircraft. The timing was said by some to coincide with the appointment of UK Prime Minister Andy Burnham, as Sir Keir Starmer stepped down.

France shuts down nuclear power stations

French state power company EDF (Électricité de France) has shut down the Golfech 2, Bugey 3 and Chooz 2 reactors due to the heatwave. Seven additional reactors ran at reduced power. EDF said nuclear safety was not at risk and the long‑run generation impact remains small historically. Output was cut by a record 9.2 GW.
Russia gets blame for grid attack

Officials from the UK and Europe have pointed the finger at Russia for an attempted cyberattack on the Polish electricity grid system back in the winter of 2025. The attack is being blamed on Russia’s FSB Centre 16 and had it been successful, it would have cut power to over half a million people.
In June, the UK nearly suffered a total power blackout.

The UK almost suffered the same fate as Spain last year. Yet the story did not make the news. Whistleblowers said the UK was near crisis point. This happens when the grid falls outside safe operating limits and has to use all possible supplies of power to meet demand. If any of those had failed it would have triggered an automatic system shutdown, causing power cuts across the country. A cover-up, or just a simple reluctance to admit what happened?
