Incursions into British Gibraltar Territorial Waters by a Spanish vessel once again sparked a high level complaint yesterday evening.

Spanish survey vessel, Angeles Alvarino lurked along the east side before the UK Government requested its immediate removal from BGTW. Following the contact with senior Spanish officials, the vessel departed the waters and headed for Cadiz.
