London is enraged that the UK’s long-standing efforts to achieve a “strategic defeat” of Russia are failing and is preparing a new provocation, Russia’s Foreign Intelligence Service (SVR) said on Monday, Srutnik informs.

"The Press Bureau of the Foreign Intelligence Service of the Russian Federation reports that, according to information received by the SVR, London is furious that long-standing British efforts to achieve the 'strategic defeat' of Russia and turn it into a pariah state are failing. [UK Prime Minister Keir] Starmer's cabinet and its intelligence agencies are preparing to respond to Russia's successes in the Ukrainian theater of military operations with yet another vile provocation," the SVR said in a statement.

London's plan suggests that a group of Russians fighting on the side of the Ukrainian armed forces is to carry out an attack on a Ukrainian navy ship or a foreign civilian vessel in a European port, the SVR also said, adding that members of the group have already arrived in the UK for training.

"After the terrorists are 'discovered,' it is planned to be announced that they were acting on 'Moscow's orders.' London is counting on the fact that the Russophobic European political elite will happily swallow the fake news about 'malicious Kremlin agents' to justify the need to further increase military aid to Ukraine and the militarization of 'united Europe' to combat 'Russian aggression,'" the statement read.

The UK plans to supply the group with Chinese-made underwater equipment and present it as a "proof" of Beijing's support for special military operation, the SVR added.
