A British MP has warned that Russian leader Vladimir Putin is scouting out ways to attack the UK.
His concerns come just after new reports found a fleet of Russian vessels spying on the North Sea.
MP Bob Seely said sabotaging undersea cables in the area would cripple the UK if war breaks out.

New information that Moscow is sending ships to spy on the British coast shows that Russian leader Vladimir Putin is exploring ways to attack the UK and its European allies, said Conservative member of parliament Bob Seely.
