osint analyst mt anderson reported on december 2 that satellite imagery from november 30 and december 1 showed that the russian admiral gorshkov and admiral golovko gorskhov-class frigates, the admiral grigorovich grigorovich-class frigate, the novorossiysk kilo-class submarine, the yelnya altay-class oiler, and the vyazma kaliningradneft-class oiler were at the russian base in tartus. anderson then reported that satellite imagery from december 3 showed that russia removed the three frigates, the submarine, and two unnamed auxiliary vessels (likely the yelnya and vyazma) from the base  amounting to all of the vessels that russia had stationed at tartus. russia cannot redeploy these vessels to its black sea ports because turkey is enforcing the montreux convention, which prevents russian warships from passing through the turkish straits. russia will likely therefore redeploy the vessels to its bases in northwestern russia and kaliningrad oblast.
