London, Asharq Al-Awsat—A Russian naval task force is reportedly sailing into the Mediterranean this weekend for exercises with a mix of political and strategic aims linked to the crisis in Syria. Consisting of five battleships, the force could be used to evacuate Russian citizens in Syria in case Damascus falls.

According to the Defence Ministry in Moscow the flotilla from the three naval commands could be used for a variety of purposes. The ship Novocherkask is designed for close coasting and land operations, including the transfer of Russian citizens still in Syria. The ship Kaliningrad could be used for breaking a naval blockade of Syria if one is imposed. The ships Nikolai Filchenko, Azov, and Aleksander Shabalin could be used for providing support for operations inside Syria.

I would keep a eye on this. Would not trust the Russians for anything.
