"The 11th international convoy will head for the Bab-el-Mandeb Strait via the safety corridor. During the inter-convoy period large ASW ship Admiral Vinogradov had completed maintenance at sea and visited Seychelles. That was the second visit of the Russian warship to this island state; it was carried out in the atmosphere of friendship and understanding", said Roman Martov.
