Putin will block foreign warships from entering Black Sea via the Kerch Strait
(Worthy News) – Russia will block foreign warships and non-commercial vessels from transiting the Kerch Strait to access the Black Sea, according to reports from Ukrainian media. The strait lies between Crimea and Russia, and connects the Black Sea to the Sea of Azov.
The closure will be in effect from April 24 through an unspecified date in October, according to the Kyiv Post. The blockage reportedly is to seal off the Black Sea for military drills, and comes amid heightened speculation of an imminent war between Russia and Ukraine.
The move materialized after Russia on Tuesday warned the U.S. to avoid the area “for their own good,” prompting the Biden administration to cancel plans for two U.S. Navy warships to enter the Black Sea. [ Source: Just the News (Read More…) ]
