China, Russia, and Iran are planning a joint naval exercise, Iranian media and Russia’s Pacific Fleet has said.

The plan comes amid speculation that the three countries are teaming up in the face of pressure from the US.

The Pacific Fleet said that a naval group including a missile cruiser, a large anti-submarine warfare ship and a large sea tanker had anchored off Chabahar, Iran’s only oceanic port, on the Gulf of Oman.

“In the port, an official delegation of the Russian Navy will take part in a planned conference on conducting a joint naval exercise of warships of Russia, Iran and China,” it said on Tuesday, without further elaboration.

It will be the second occasion that three-way naval exercises have been held by China, Russia, and Iran.
