MOSCOW (Sputnik) - An attack on a US Navy ship with an allegedly Russian torpedo is one of the scenarios of anti-Russian provocations in the Baltic Sea, prepared by Ukraine and the United Kingdom, the Russian Foreign Intelligence Service (SVR) said on Monday.

"The Ukrainians together with the UK are currently preparing provocations in the Baltic Sea. One of the scenarios involves staging an alleged Russian torpedo attack on a US Navy ship," the SVR said. Ukraine has already begun handing the Soviet/Russian-made torpedoes over to the UK, the SVR said in a statement.

"The Soviet/Russian-made torpedoes have already been handed over by the Ukrainian side to the UK. It is planned that some of them will explode at a 'safe distance' from the US ship, while one will not explode and will be presented to the public as evidence of Russia's 'malicious activity," the statement read.
