Two UK Warships Intercepts Spain Rayo Warships off the coast of Gibraltar
THE ROYAL NAVY has been deployed to intercept a Spanish vessel for the second day in a row after it entered UK waters off the coast of Gibraltar.
Two Royal Navy vessels were sent out this afternoon after a Spanish Rayo (P-42) vessel veered into UK territory. HMS Dasher shadowed the patrol boat for more than an hour and broadcasted a number of sovereignty warnings. The 68ft long aircraft carrier was joined on the mission by Royal Navy rhib powerboat.
Pictures show the two boats engaging in close contact with the Spanish vessel in the murky waterways. The incident on the east side of The Rock was the second to take place in the past 24 hours.
