Chinese and Russian naval forces in the Pacific have remained active in recent weeks ahead of likely joint exercises this summer.
New reports released on Monday by U.S. treaty ally Japan have shed light on the recent movements of Russian and Chinese warships in Asia's crowded waterways.Ship and aircraft crews were scrambled to shadow and gather intelligence on at least four vessels, which steamed in and out of the Western Pacific on March 23-25, according to the Joint Staff of Japan's Self-Defense Forces.Japan shares maritime borders with South Korea, another U.S.
The following day, Japanese forces detected Russian Pacific Fleet vessel the Rezkiy, a Project 20380 or Steregushchy-class corvette, 25 miles northeast of Japan's main island of Honshu, before it sailed westward into the Sea of Japan via the narrow Tsugaru Strait, the Joint Staff said.Tokyo said the Russian warship was shadowed by Sugashima-class minesweeper the JS Izushima as well as the minesweeper JS Enoshima, the lead ship of its class.
