#Sudan's military government has offered #Russia its first naval base in #Africa, the #Wall_Street_Journal reported.

Under a 25-year proposal presented in October, #Moscow would have the right to station up to 300 troops and dock four warships, including nuclear-powered ones, at #Port_Sudan or another #Red_Sea facility.

From #Port_Sudan, #Russia would be well-placed to monitor maritime traffic to and from the #Suez_Canal,

📌Initially, the destination was listed as the port of #Kandla in the #Indian state of #Gujarat, used by the private oil refining company #Reliance_Industries Ltd. and the state-owned #Bharat_Petroleum Corp. Ltd. Arrival date – mid-November.

📌Later, the carrier changed the destination port to #Egypt’s #Port_Said, sometimes indicated as the destination by ships passing through the #Suez_Canal for subsequent route adjustment, #Bloomberg reports.

The ship circled #Norway, passed through the #English_Channel, entered the #Irish_Sea, and moved toward the #Suez_Canal, disguising itself as a civilian vessel.

#Yantar is equipped with devices capable of intercepting data from cables and placing explosives. Its crew is highly qualified, including officers with submarine service experience. #Putin is moving toward active sabotage preparations, creating maps of routes and installing underwater beacons.

Client Challenge

The #Houthis aim to control key maritime routes, including the #Suez_Canal.

Key figures:
◼️Nearly 200 ship attacks, with over 40 vessels damaged.
◼️Transportation costs per shipment increased by $1 million.
◼️Container shipping costs have risen fivefold.

Notably, the #Houthis avoid targeting #Chinese vessels and #Russia's shadow fleet, granting them preferential conditions for trade.
