Three Russian naval ships from the Baltic Fleet are scheduled to arrive in Cuba this Saturday, as reported by official media on Thursday. This marks the second visit by Russian naval vessels since June.

The Cuban Revolutionary Armed Forces issued a brief statement describing the visit as routine. However, back-to-back naval visits by any country to Cuba have not been recorded in decades.

Earlier reports from Russian news agencies cited Cuba's Defense Ministry in announcing the planned visit.
