A Russian warship entered the eastern Mediterranean Friday and was heading toward the area where two U.S. Navy destroyers launched missile strikes into Syria, Fox News has learned.
The Russian frigate, Admiral Grigorovich RFS-494, crossed through the Bosphorus Strait “a few hours ago” from the Black Sea, according to a U.S. defense official.
The Russian warship is now in the eastern Mediterranean steaming in the direction of the U.S. warships.

The frigate was bound for the Syrian port of Tartus on a routine voyage, the Russian news agency TASS reported Friday, citing a military-diplomatic source.
“The Russian ship armed with cruise missiles Kalibr will visit the logistics base in Tartus, Syria,” the source said, according to TASS.
Well that escalated quickly.
Anyone else wonder how Fox News learned this?
Russia has said before it will protect Syria.
Here we go.
Knew all this wouldn’t turn out well for the US. We don’t need to be the world police.
Let them. We’ve proven we can mean business. Now, let’s let the Russians handle the Islamocrazies.
It was the canteen that really pissed them off. Those Russians like to drink...
God almighty——I dreaded hearing the news this morning——this is worse than I expected.
.
Well, looks like McCain, Graham, Rubio and Hillary might get that war with Russia after all...................
They will park a boat new the coast at the edge of Cruise missile range as a deterant. So we move to Submarine launched Cruise missiles. They cant hear one of our attack subs. Proven fact. Till it launches under water. We know where they are. They don’t.
We only do this is he gasses people again. Else situation back to ‘normal’ for the area.
Nothing to see here. The Russians probably just want to discuss the midterm election strategy for next year.
War, huhhh
What is it good for....
Will Yoko now issue her version of Imagine?
Boooooooo!
From your link, its apparently a routine movement.
“The frigate was bound for the Syrian port of Tartus on a routine voyage, the Russian news agency TASS reported Friday, citing a military-diplomatic source.

>>Knew all this wouldn’t turn out well for the US. We don’t need to be the world police.
The cost of doing Bidness as Usual.

Hillary and her fellow Looters/Bidness pardners got buyers lined up for Syria’s goodies yet?
A single frigate against at least two AEGIS destroyers. Symbolic face saving gesture.
They’re just delivering another massive shipment of Russian dressing for our president, I’m sure.
