SIMFEROPOL (Pakistan Point News / Sputnik - 26th November, 2018) Three Ukrainian ships seized in the Black Sea for illegally crossing the Russian border will be convoyed to the port of Kerch, a spokesman for the Border Directorate of the Russian Federal Security Service (FSB) for Crimea, Anton Lozovoy, said on Monday.
Earlier, the FSB reported that three ships of the Ukrainian Navy � Berdyansk, Nikopol and Yany Kapu � had been seized after violating Russian state border. The Ukrainian ships did not react to legal demands of the ships accompanying them and made dangerous maneuvers, the FSB noted.
"All three vessels have been seized. They are being convoyed to the port of Kerch," Lozovoy told reporters.
According to him, a criminal case was initiated under Russian Criminal Code Article 322.3 (illegal crossing of the state border).
Three lightly wounded Ukrainian soldiers received medical assistance, Lozovoy added.
