Russian forces in the Mediterranean - Wk23/2021

Task Force Composition

As reported by OSINT at noon of June 12

Weekly Sitrep

Little naval activity was reported through open sources and all activity was related to the transiting of several vessels towards the Mediterranean. This drop in reported naval activity could be related to the large scale naval exercises held by the Northern and Pacific Fleets.
It is unknown if the Pavel Silaev will replace the Grachonok harbor protection boat already in operations in Tartus. If not, than Russia will operate two of these vessels which could indicate a higher security risk against Russian vessels stationed in Tartus. These harbor protection boats are designed to operate against irregular forces such as small groups of saboteurs or divers.
