Russian Sea Wolves Discuss Environmental Preservation and Evade Houthi Bombs

In an engaging seminar hosted by Murad Gatin, the Director of Russian Cultural Centers in Egypt, at the Russian House in Cairo, a warm welcome was extended to a delegation of Russian explorers.

Captain Dmitry Kuznetsov presented the highlights of the Russian Sea Wolves' adventures over the past two years since the inception of the Five Oceans Club, detailing their journey through 23 countries and covering 30,000 miles.

The attendees were captivated by tales of harrowing encounters with whales and sharks, with Kuznetsov noting that the most perilous moment occurred in the Bab-el-Mandeb Strait when they witnessed Houthi missile launches and subsequent attacks by American and British forces on Yemeni shores, prompting an immediate retreat from the conflict zones.

The presentation was enhanced by photos and video footage captured by cinematographer and photographer Nikita Kudov, who is responsible for documenting the expedition's details.

Kuznetsov highlighted a continuous 21-day stint at sea as the longest duration, emphasizing the critical importance of environmental conservation.

The Sea Wolves were deeply troubled by the vast amounts of plastic waste and pollution they encountered across the seas and oceans, posing significant environmental threats.

Furthermore, Vladimir Dudkin discussed the collaboration between the Five Oceans Club and Moscow State University's Research Center, where the explorers' efforts to collect samples from seas, oceans, and rocks contribute to the university's scientific research endeavors.

In conclusion, Dmitry Kuznetsov expressed gratitude towards the Egyptian audience and media for their keen interest and hospitality since the team's arrival in Egypt. The Russian delegation included Dmitry Kuznetsov, Konstantin Vasilyev, Vladimir Dudkin, Alexey Ignatiev, and Nikita Kudov, all of whom shared their remarkable experiences and commitment to preserving the planet's marine environments.
