Early in Sept, the ships are expected to rendezvous in Spanish port Ceuta with BSF rescue tug Shakhter which is to escort the sub right up to Sevastopol.
Rescue tug Shakhter entered the Mediterranean Sea several days ago and started passing the Malta Channel.
The BSF task unit will arrive in the Black Sea in the second half of Sept 2012.
