Ottoman fleet plans division and Black Sea move
Reports from Constantinople April 8 describe reinforcement of the Ottoman army and a strategic fleet split. One division to sail from the Dardanelles into the Archipelago with new ships and troops, the other to stay in the Black Sea. Additional vessels will land troops for the Archipelago, Crimea, and Qanakow garrison reinforcement. A potential diversion into Bessarabia is noted amid Nogai and Tartar activities. Madrid reports Prince de Mafferana leaving for Loriden to assume ambassadorial duties. Paris notes Countess de Barré leaving Versailles for the Duc d'Aiguillon's residence near Paris with accompanying escort.
