Defence Secretary John Healey has revealed that a Russian spy ship is currently on the edge of UK waters, off the coast of Scotland, and issued a stark warning to Moscow not to head any further south.

The shocking revelation came at the top of a major speech on defence by Mr Healey from Downing Street.

Opening the press conference, he announced: "As I speak, a Russian spy ship - the Yantar - is on the edge of the UK's waters north of Scotland, having entered the UK's wider waters over the last few weeks.

"This is a vessel designed for gathering intelligence and mapping our undersea cables.

"We deployed a Royal Navy frigate and RAF planes to monitor and track this vessel's every move, during which the Yantar directed lasers at our pilots.

"That Russian action is deeply dangerous. And this is the second time this year that this ship has deployed to UK waters."

He issued a blunt threat to Russian war leader Vladimir Putin: "We see you, we know what you're doing, and if the Yantar travels south this week, we are ready."

The worrying news came amid an announcement by the government that Britain will mass-manufacture explosives for the first time in a generation, including high explosives, rocket propellants and ignition systems to be used on the front line.
