The ships with the convoy were corvettes RFS Sovershennyy (333) and RFS Rezkiy (343), a Dubna-class fleet oiler and tugboat Andrei Stepanov, all of the Russian Navy’s Pacific Fleet. The Russian convoy’s destination is unclear. As of publication, Russia has not made an official statement on the movements of the Russian Navy Pacific Fleet ships. Russia typically announces when ships deploy to the Asia-Pacific region.

The JSO did not name the cargo ships, but images released by Japan identified five of the six cargo ships – MV Maia 1, MV Lady D, MV Lady Mariia, MV Lady R and MV Kapitan Danilkin. Maia 1, Lady D, Lady Mariia and Kapitan Danilkin were visible in the East China Sea on Monday, according to AIS data. [...]

Of the five identified ships, Lady R has been sanctioned by the U.S and the EU, with South Korea sanctioning the ship in April of 2024 for transporting weapons and munitions from North Korea to Russia. Maia 1, Lady D and Lady Mariia were sanctioned by the U.S. due affiliation with MG-FLOT LLC, which has been designated under the Russian Harmful Foreign Activities sanctions. The three ships have also been sanctioned by various countries for transporting Russian weapons and munitions.
