A Russian spy ship sailing in international waters off the coast of South Carolina and Florida is operating in what two US officials describe as an 'unsafe manner'
Washington A Russian spy-ship has returned to international waters off the southeastern coast of the United States and is operating in what two US officials told CNN is an"unsafe manner."
The Viktor Leonov, a Russian surveillance ship, has been sailing off the coast of South Carolina and Florida in the last few days, one official told CNN, adding that the ship's actions were determined to be unsafe because it is not using running lights in low visibility weather and it is not responding to hails from commercial vessels attempting to establish its position in order to help avoid potential accidents.
