15.08.2024

The Pacific Fleet's detachment made up of the Guards missile cruiser Varyag and frigate Marshal Shaposhnikov has overcome the Strait of Malacca and entered the Singapore Strait.

Pacific seamen return from a long-distance mission to their home base making their way through the Asia-Pacific region.

After passing the Singapore Strait, a detachment of ships of the Pacific Fleet will conduct a maritime replenishment exercise involving a sea tanker.

For reference:

A long-distance mission of the Pacific Fleet ships began on 22 January this year. During this time, the Pacific sailors have conducted dozens of training sessions in combat training and organisation of the ships' daily activities at sea. The ships also made business calls at the ports of such countries as Eritrea, India, Sri Lanka, Iran, and Qatar.
