ISLAMABAD (92 News) The newly commissioned Pakistan Navy Ship (PNS) YAMAMA, during its maiden voyage from Romania to Pakistan, visited Golcuk and Aksaz Naval Bases in Turkiye and participated in Turkish Navy Exercise MAVI VATAN-2025.
Upon arrival, the ship was received by representatives of Turkish naval forces along with the naval attaché of Pakistan.
According to the Pakistan Navy, PNS YAMAMA’s visit to Türkiye was aimed at strengthening brotherly relations and reaffirming Pakistan's commitment to fostering wide-ranging bilateral relations and defence ties with Türkiye.
During the visit, a number of professional and social activities, such as leadership engagements, visits to Turkish naval facilities, professional interactions, and discourse on professional subjects of mutual interest, were conducted.
The deputy commander of the Turkish naval fleet, Vice Admiral Ibrahim Ozden Kocer, also visited PNS YAMAMA and received a detailed brief on the capabilities of the ship.
