US EditionRussia Launches Large-Scale Naval War Drills In Baltic Sea
- In late May 2025, Russia carried out extensive naval drills across the Baltic region, deploying over 20 warships, approximately 3,000 personnel, and supported by aerial units.
- The drills respond to recent NATO military activities near Russia’s borders and Finland and Sweden joining NATO, which Moscow calls a threat to regional stability.
- The exercises include frigates, corvettes, anti-submarine ships, and minesweepers conducting artillery fire, anti-submarine, and defense drills to counter unmanned vessels.
- A Russian statement said the crews will execute "anti-submarine tasks in combat training areas" and warned NATO’s actions rapidly increase threats, with the Baltic region becoming a potential flashpoint.
- Strains in the Baltic region have intensified amid mutual naval patrols and ship detentions, increasing the likelihood of militarization and a potential maritime clash between Russia and NATO.
