UNS Chernihiv (M310), a Sandown-class minehunter operated by the Ukrainian Navy, passing Greenock on the Firth of Clyde. The vessel is participating in Exercise Sea Breeze 23-1 (named Alba Breeze in recognition of the temporary host nation), a multi-national military exercise being held this year in Scotland, instead of the usual host nation of Ukraine. This vessel had served with the UK's Royal Navy as HMS Grimsby (M108), until she was decommissioned in 2022, then transferred to the Ukrainian Navy earlier this year. This is her first naval exercise in the hands of her new owners.
