On July 27, Russian Baltic Fleet ships, including the training ship Smolny, patrol ship Neustrashimiy, and oil tanker Yelnya, arrived in Havana, Cuba. This visit follows a month after a Russian naval strike group, featuring the nuclear submarine Kazan, docked in Cuba, conducting drills in the Caribbean. The Cuban Defense Ministry highlighted the visit as a symbol of robust ties and ongoing cooperation. The Russian crew will meet Cuban officials and allow public tours of the Smolny. This naval activity underscores Russia's efforts to bolster military alliances amid global isolation due to the Ukraine conflict.
