Gazette De France 18th of October 1827 A report by Admiral Codrington regarding the blockade of Navarino by the Allied forces (France, Great Britain, and Russia). The Ottoman fleet consists of over 120 vessels, including 25 frigates and 25 corvettes. The European forces marvel at the sheer scale of the Ottoman fleet in comparison to their own, while the Greeks take advantage of the blockade by using their own ships to intercept Ibrahim Pasha's supply lines and to launch potential landings in Chios and Crete.
