US and Russian ships narrowly avoid collision

Two Russian and US warships narrowly avoided a collision in the Philippine Sea on Friday, with each side blaming each other for the near miss.

The US said the incident was as a result of an "unsafe and unprofessional" move by the Russian vessel, while Russia blamed the US cruiser for a sudden change of course.
