The details of the event that happened in the Mediterranean is the post of OSINT investigator with Nick MT Anderson on the social network X (Twitter). MT Anderson posted the satellite photos of the pier in the Tobruk, near which he recorded large landing ships of the Russian Federation. In particular, he noted that Ivan Gren Vodk and Alexander Ostroakovsky. The vessels were spotted near the pier with coordinates 32. 07502, 23. 97913.
The ships came at different times, but one day - on the morning of April 14, - said the author of the post, calling this event "Libyan Express". "Libyan Express (Tabruk) in the midst. I noticed" Ivan Gren "and" Alexander Otrakovsky "in Tobruk (at different times) on the morning of April 14, 2024. " What the OSINT investigative post means, explained in the Crimean Vetter monitoring channel. It is indicated that earlier for war in Ukraine the Kremlin exported ammunition from Syria.
Now similar to Libya: that is, there was "Syrian express" and now "Libyan". "Ivan Gren" is a large landing ship of the Russian Federation 11711, "Alexander Otrakovsky" - VDK of Project 775. Both are part of the Northern Fleet. Ivan Gren can carry a marine infantry battalion along with military equipment and pontons, and can also transport two Ka-29 helicopters. Alexander Otrakovsky is able to transport 500 tons of cargo and 225 paratroopers. Speed - 33 km/h, crew - 87 people.
It should be noted that during the two years of the Russian Federation lost a third of ships based on the Black Sea. The new ones cannot appear there because Turkey blocked the Bosphorus for the Navy of any countries. Cargo ships can pass: thanks to this, the Kremlin sells stolen Ukrainian grain, as focus has previously told.
Meanwhile, President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky said that the Russian Federation is forced to remove rocket launchers from the Black Sea as they can be destroyed by Ukrainian defense forces. Experts analyzed which ships would be able to reach the Volga-Don Danny into the Caspian Sea. It turned out that these were only four small rocket ships. Together with the Caspian available, they can make a total volley of 56 caliber missiles.
