MOSCOW — A Russian ship that tried to supply attack helicopters to
the Syrian regime amid the bloodshed was reported July 13 to have left
its port with the same controversial cargo aboard.
There was no immediate indication of whether the cargo vessel Alaed would end up trying to deliver the equipment to Syria directly or drop it off at an intermediate location.
“The Mi-25 helicopters subject for return to Syria after their repair are currently aboard the Alaed, which is sailing from the port in Murmansk to another port in Russia,” the Rosoboronexport state arms exporter said in a statement.
A source at Murmansk told the Interfax news agency the ship left July 10 for the port of Baltiysk in Russia’s Kaliningrad exclave east of Poland.
