A Russian submarine is on its way into Swedish waters. The submarine is on its way to Fleet Day in Saint Petersburg, an event that occurs annually, the Danish defense told TT.

It is supposed to be a nuclear-powered attack submarine that has been followed during the night by the ships of the Danish navy.

– Yes it is true. But for security reasons, we cannot state how long the Danish navy will accompany the Russian submarine, says Karen Dahlin, press spokesperson at the Danish defense, to TT.
