The Battle of Tsushima was a naval engagement between Russia and Japan on May the 27th and May the 28th 1905 during the Russo-Japanese War. The Russian fleet under Vice-Admiral Rozhdestvensky left Libau on October the 18th 1904 and after a seven month voyage was almost annihilated by an approximately equal force under Admiral Togo. The main action was fought in the afternoon of the 27th. After nightfall several flotillas of Japanese torpedo craft, in spite of heavy weather, were sent against the battered and scattered remnants of the Russian fleet; and on the 28th a surviving division of battleships, under Rear-Admiral Nebogatoff was compelled to surrender, while various minor craft were rounded up and captured or destroyed.
