Serious problems for the Russian fleet.
Russia had problems with the passage of some ships through the Bosphorus.
The Crimean Wind monitoring group reported.
So, the GRUMANT bulk carrier has been sticking out in front of the Bosphorus for 3 days, changing parking places. On February 28, the vessel was loaded in Sevastopol with stolen Ukrainian grain and left on the same day with a cargo of approximately 20,000 tons.
The ZAFAR bulk carrier is in front of the Bosphorus for 2 days. On February 25, two tugs took this out of the port of Sevastopol after loading 35,800 tons of stolen grain.
It is worth noting that two military vehicles could not pass through the strait. Russian military transports Yaz and SPARTA IV transporting weapons and ammunition from Syria received negative answers on the evening of February 26 and went south. As of March 2, Yaz is in the Syrian port of Tartus, the location of SPARTA IV is unknown.
Presumably, Turkey began to react to the secret transportation of weapons and stolen grain two years after the outbreak of the war of the Russian Federation against Ukraine.
