The logistical carrier, identified as the RoRo Altay, was photographed with what sources count as 133 Ural military-grade transport trucks above its hull. No information existed on what army equipment was present within the ship's actual cargo bay.

The RoRo Altay's naval accomplice was identified as the Ropucha-class landing ship 'Alexander Otrakovsky' whose military cargo is completely hidden inside internal bays and can only be guessed.

All military equipment being delivered would most likely be pressed into service with the Syrian Armed Forces.
