I know Russia isn’t allowed to send military ships into the Black Sea through the Bosporus Strait. But is Russia also not allowed to move its Black Sea Fleet out through the strait to protect its ships?

I believe (could well be wrong) that Turkey stopped all warship transits, with the exception of Russian warships returning to their home ports in the Black Sea.

Turkey does not allow any combatant nation warships to enter the Black Sea. Thus, Russian Black Sea Fleet warships which were outside the Black Sea on 24.2.2022, like Admiral Grigorovič, are not allowed to return to their home ports. Exiting the Black Sea is not prohibited, as far as I am aware.
