Chinese navy begins Gulf of Aden patrol
The Chinese Navy launched a new escort mission in the Gulf of Aden and the waters off the coast of Somalia, as the 49th escort fleet departed from Sanya Port, Hainan Province this morning. The fleet consists of the guided missile destroyer "Changming," the guided missile frigate "Yueyang," and the supply ship "Luhamao," carrying dozens of special operations personnel and two helicopters. This is the first mission for the destroyer "Changming," and the fleet will take over escort duties from a previous fleet that set sail in October of last year. This comes within China's ongoing efforts since 2008 to protect international shipping routes and provide support to vessels facing risks in the region.
