A group of Russian Northern Fleet ships is sailing to the Horn of Africa to take part in an anti-piracy mission in the region.
The large submarine hunter Severomorsk, a rescue tug, a tanker and other vessels left their homeport of Severomorsk on Tuesday for the Barents Sea.
The group will then sail by way of the Atlantic, the Mediterranean and the Suez Canal to the Gulf of Aden.
In the course of the expedition, the Russian vessels will call at a number of foreign ports, the Russian Navy’s press service reports.
The Severomorsk is taking part in escort operations in the Gulf of Aden for the second time.
All in all, vessels of the Russian Northern Fleet have escorted more than 40 international convoys in this pirate-infested area.
