The FSB published a video of yesterday's encounter with the HMS Defender, which confirms that a Russian Project 22460 Okhotnik-class Coast Guard patrol ship did fire warning shots from its AK-630 30mm cannon. However, this occurred far behind the Defender.

From the beginning of the video showing two FSB Coast Guard Project 22460 patrol ships and Su-24M and Su-30SM aircraft during yesterday's encounter with the HMS Defender near Crimea. Those warning shots were fired so far behind the Defender that they weren't that threatening. 40/

The rest of the video (the warning shots came at the end). Still no indication that Russian Su-24M bombers dropped bombs in the path of the HMS Defender, so I'm going to assume it didn't happen. Russia certainly could have taken a more aggressive response. 41/
