Russia sends submarine to stop Donald Trump seizing runaway tanker as major Atlantic clash looms [View all]

If there is going to be a WWIII it's going to be started by Trump

Russia has sent a submarine to escort an Iranian-linked sanctioned oil tanker in the Atlantic - sparking fears of a confrontation with the US.

The vessel, once known as the Guyana-flagged, Iranian-linked sanctioned Bella 1 and now renamed the Russian-flagged Marinera, is said to be heading toward its apparent destination in northern Russia, a US official told the Wall Street Journal.

It was also tracked by the US, UK, France and Ireland from the air after it escaped US interception in December.

A US Navy P‑8A Poseidon maritime patrol aircraft was spotted tracking the vessel as it passed the south of Iceland, before returning to RAF Mildenhall.

But now, a submarine and multiple Russian Navy vessels are on their way to bring it back to Russia, the Wall Street Journal revealed.
