Russia today (November 26, 2018) ignored Western calls to release three Ukrainian naval ships and their crews it fired on and captured near Crimea yesterday and accused Kiev of plotting with its Western allies to provoke a conflict, according to the Reuters website.
Ukraine accused Russia of military aggression and put its armed forces on full combat alert.

The European Union, Britain, France, Poland, Denmark, and Canada all condemned Russia's aggression.
