Defence Web – The German Navy’s (Deutsche Marine) Task Group 500.01, comprising the frigate FGS Baden-Württemberg (F222) and the replenishment vessel Frankfurt am Main (A1412) made an unexpected but warmly welcomed arrival at the Port of Cape Town on Tuesday 12 November. This last-minute docking underscores the impact of escalating security threats in the Red Sea, where recent attacks have made navigation perilous for commercial and military vessels alike.
