The Russian Black Sea Fleet stated that warplanes from its air units and those of the Southern Military District participated in the exercises.
“The aircraft crews carried out training flights over the Black Sea, which included missile strikes and shelling of enemy ship models,” the Russian news agency quoted the fleet as saying.
“Among the aircraft that participated in the training were Sukhoi Su-30 multipurpose fighters, Sukhoi Su-24 bombers, Sukhoi Su-34 fighter-bombers and Sukhoi Su-27 fighter jets,” the report added.
The exercises come as NATO, Ukraine and their allies are conducting large-scale “Sea Breeze” exercises in the region.
