MOSCOW (Sputnik) - The Russian-Chinese Interaction-2024 naval exercise has begun in the Sea of Japan, the press service of Russia's Pacific Fleet said on Saturday.
"A joint detachment of warships from the [Russian] Pacific Fleet and the Chinese Navy set out to sea from Vladivostok to conduct the joint Russian-Chinese naval exercise Beibu/Interaction-2024," the fleet said in a statement.
The press service noted that before the two countries’ warship squadron left base, there was a ceremonial formation of crews, during which the beginning of the bilateral exercises was announced.

"In the course of practicing the maneuvers, the ship crews will carry out artillery fire and a number of combat exercises with anti-aircraft and anti-submarine weapons," the Russian Defense Ministry added.
