Seven Chinese warships on Saturday left the eastern Chinese port city of Qingdao for the Sea of Japan where they will join Russian counterparts for a nine-day naval exercise.
The drills, codenamed Joint Sea-2015 (II), will take place from Aug. 20 to 28 in the Peter the Great Gulf, waters off the Clerk Cape and in and above the Sea of Japan.
This will be the second such China-Russia naval exercise this year.
Earlier reports said navies of the two countries will join forces to simulate anti-submarine combat, air defense and other relevant missions.
A joint beach landing of troops is also planned.
