A Russian warship was detected off the coast of Scotland the night of December 23, reveals the Daily Mail.
And this is not the first time:

This is the second such incident in two years. In December 2011, the aircraft carrier Admiral Kuznetsov, anti-submarine ship Admiral Chabanenko and escort ship Yaroslav Mudry sailed close to Scotland before being challenged by the Royal Navy.

The Russians claim that the ship was seeking shelter from bad weather:
The Russian military news agency Interfax-AVN reported at the time that the fleet was on route to Syria and took shelter in the Moray Firth when faced with deteriorating weather conditions. ­However, some ­commentators ­believe that the country is ­testing Britain’s response times to such an incursion.
