Russia has sent two warships carrying tanks and military equipment towards the Middle East following coordinated military action in Syria.
The boats were spotted on The Bosphorus on Sunday, as Vladimir Putin warned that the world would experience ‘chaos’ if Syria was attacked again, Yahoo News reports.
The vessels are believed to be making their way towards the Russian naval base at Tartus on the northern coast of Syria.
A Russian military source claimed that the ships are ‘keeping track at a close distance of US and NATO assault ships and submarines in the eastern part of the Mediterranean Sea’.
A Russian Project 117 Alligator-class landing ship was spotted off the coast of Turkey on Sunday, reportedly making its way to the military base at Tartus on the north Syrian coast.

Reports yesterday suggested Putin could order ‘payback’ for the strikes in the form of a cyber attack on UK computer systems. Naval observer Yoruk Isik posted photographs of the Russian warships online yesterday, suggesting Russia was stepping up its own military efforts in Syria.
Orsk, Russia’s transport ship, was seen leaving the Bosphorus strait loaded up with what appeared to be tanks, lorries, ambulances and military hardware including an IED radar. A second ship, the yellow tanker RoRo Alexandr Tkachenko, was also pictured carrying trucks and materials for bridge construction, Metro reported.
The Russian embassy in U.S. wasted no time in reacting to the strikes late Friday in the U.S., with Ambassador Anatoly Antonov saying on Twitter, “The worst apprehensions have come true. Our warnings have been left unheard.”
“A pre-designed scenario is being implemented,” the statement continued. “Again, we are being threatened. We warned that such actions will not be left without consequences.”
The Russian military has reportedly gone on high alert in anticipation of a potential U.S. attack on the forces of Syrian President Bashar al-Assad, a Moscow ally accused of using chemical weapons in a seven-year civil war, RWT News Report via Newsweek Breaking News.
Russia and Iran have warned the US they will “respond with force” if their own “red lines” are crossed in Syria.
The Kremlin responded to inquiries stating that the military equipment is part of a normal rotation for Russian military and that the Russian Military was placed on alert due to American military air strikes.
