>After launching a maritime joint patrol in the Western Pacific on August 6 following the five-day Joint Sea-2025 exercise near Vladivostok, Chinese and Russian warships arrived in Kamchatka, Russia for replenishment, Russian media reported on Tuesday.
>A task force of the Russian Navy and the Navy of the People's Liberation Army (PLA) of China, performing joint patrols in the Asia-Pacific Region, made a port call in Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky to replenish stocks, Russian news agency Tass reported on Tuesday, citing the Russian Pacific Fleet's press service.
>"The large antisubmarine ship Admiral Tributs of the Pacific Fleet, the Shaoxing destroyer and the Qiandaohu replenishment ship of the PLA Navy called at a roadstead in the Avacha Bay. Soon, the vessels will continue their journey along the previously agreed patrol route," the fleet's press service said.
>The fleet emphasized that the patrol's primary objectives include enhancing naval cooperation between Russia and China, maintaining peace and stability in the Asia-Pacific region, conducting maritime surveillance, and protecting economic assets of both countries in the area. Sailors from both navies will conduct joint drills focusing on maneuvering and operational coordination, Tass reported, noting that this marks the continuation of annual bilateral patrols that began with the first Russian-Chinese joint naval patrol in the Asia-Pacific in 2021.
