A Putin-linked superyacht was withdrawn from the Baltic to Severomorsk due to Ukrainian strikes

The super-yacht “Kosatka”, which, according to an investigation by the Alexei Navalny Foundation, is associated with Russian President Vladimir Putin, is heading to Severomorsk. This was reported by The Barents Observer.

The Telegraph reported that a few days ago the yacht, accompanied by the destroyer Severomorsk and the patrol ship Voevoda, left the Baltic Sea. Officially, she was heading to Turkey, but on June 29, when the detachment was in the Skagerrak Strait, the transponders were turned off.

However, the yacht and its escort remained under surveillance by NATO warships. After entering the North Sea, the detachment turned around in the north and went along the coast of Norway. On July 4, in the Varanger Fjord area, not far from Rybachy Island, he crossed the Russian maritime border.

Orca, formerly called Graceful, was built in Germany. Its cost is about 100 million euros. She was in the Baltic, however, according to media publications, in connection with Ukrainian attacks, including on St. Petersburg and Kronstadt, it was decided to take her to a safer place.
