The Christopher Columbus (F-105), a frigate of the Spanish Navy belonging to the Álvaro de Bazán class, entered the Istanbul Bosphorus Strait from the Sea of Marmara at noon on Friday. In this video you can see how the Spanish ship enters the Bosphorus at around 1:30 pm, with a large part of the crew leaning out of the bridge during the passage through the strait; after half an hour of navigation, the frigate completed the crossing of the Bosphorus entering the Black Sea to continue its route.
