During the first stage of the Ocean-2024 exercise, the Russians will practise deploying groups of forces to designated training areas. At the second stage, they will rehearse "combat operations" to destroy strategically important targets and forces of a simulated enemy.
Operational groups of military command and control bodies and military contingents from foreign partner states of the Russian Federation have been invited to participate in the Russian Navy's exercises.
China's Ministry of Defence has announced without giving details that the country's military will participate in the exercise. The ministry reports that the two fleets will sail together for the fifth time in the Pacific Ocean and participate in the Russian exercise Great Ocean-24.
The Chinese military said it is also planning to hold Northern United-2024 exercises with the participation of the Russian Federation, which will take place in the Sea of Japan and the Sea of Okhotsk in September.
