The biggest nuclear submarine in the world departed Gibraltar for the Black Sea under the strict protection of the British Royal Navy amid worries about a Russian incursion in southern Ukraine.
The departure of the “USS Road Island” comes with the increasing concerns about what Russian President Vladimir Putin will do after the last withdrawal from the Jeresson region in Ukraine.
According to the British “Express” website, the US Navy ballistic missile submarine arrived in Gibraltar as scheduled on last Tuesday.
The nuclear submarine visited Rudd Island, which is located in Scotland and has a British navy facility in Claide, in July 2022 before travelling to British territory.
As for the submarine visit to Gibraltar, Captain John Cradock of the US Navy’s 69th Labor Squad said that it “enhances our tight commitment to our allies and partners in the region.
” The American navy described the Georgia -based submarine, which was first launched in 1993, as “flexible and survival, with the ability to do continuous patrols as a very effective element in the American nuclear deterrent force. ”
The submarine has been assigned to the Submarine Group 10 group, has 24 missile tubes and four Torbid tubes, and is capable of launching TRIDENT II missiles.
The labour squad of 69 is in charge of conducting submarine war operations in the US leadership liability regions in Africa and Europe.
While the 69th work band is made up of offensive and missile submarines that can perform a variety of combat operations as well as gather intelligence.
The last time a US Navy submarine visited a port of Jabal Tariq in June 2021, when the Alaska Alaska aircraft carrier stopped there.
It is interesting that yesterday, in response to the Ukrainian counterattack on the city of Jiuson in southern Ukraine, Russian President Vladimir Putin urged citizens to flee the area.
As the Ukrainian counter-attack advanced in the south, the Russian leaders and officials in Jiusson could be seen departing.
Russia has repeatedly warned that Ukraine was planning to put a dirty explosive bomb covered with radioactive materials, which Kyiv denied altogether and in detail..
