China and Russia have agreed to conduct a joint naval drill at the end of May in the East China Sea, according to a Russian media report.
A Russian military commission has arrived in Shanghai to have a final consultation on details of the operation.
The "Joint Sea-2014" drill marks the first time the two countries have agreed to hold military exercises in waters off the Diaoyu Islands.
Twenty-odd warships, including a Russian missile cruiser, a destroyer, a comprehensive supply ship and one ocean tug, will take part in the war games.
Both Russian and Chinese armed forces will polish their skills in joint air-defense, anti-submarine and maritime replenishment.
Russian fleets will set out from Vladivostok in mid-May around the time when Russian President Vladimir Putin visits Shanghai.
