Russian nuclear submarine risks exploding after ‘serious accident’ | World | News
The international Navy was mixed in response to a ‘serious accident’ containing a Russian nuclear submarine forced to emerge close to the UK region at the weekend.
After having a serious leak in the fuel system of Novorossiysk, a 74 -meter missile, more details about the incident in the Gibraltar Strait, where it became a “explosive danger”, emerged. Russian Telegram channels reported a disaster situation on the ship, full of diesel, the hidden sub -body of the SUB.
Despite the critical nature of the ship’s fuel distribution system, the military bloggers claimed that no one on the ship had training to solve the problem and that there was no spare parts. While the nuclear Sub is at risk of explosion in one of the most intense transport channels in the world, the crew is afraid that the diesel will start throwing diesel into the Mediterranean.
Although the Russian navy refused to verify the incident, the open -source ship monitoring software and witnesses on the ground have been trying to watch the submarine that moved to the West since the West since forced to go to the surface, and to watch the submarine on the west.
“Novorossiysk, who is currently a war task in the Mediterranean, is experiencing serious technical problems. Fuel is leaking to wait directly due to damage to the fuel system,” he said to the Russian military bloggers on the submarine.
“The accumulated fuel explosive is a danger.
The large weight class Novorossiysk submarine has six torpedoes with 12 re -installed and can launch supersonic, nuclear -featured, cruise missiles. In addition, he was seen in the British earlier this year, while the royal navy was released from the British channel in January on his way to the North Sea.
Recently, it has been operating in the Mediterranean for several weeks, working with Russian tugobi Jakob Grebelsky. Olive pressure Reports. After this critical failure, the same tugboat moved from the Algarve of Portugal to the west, which shows that Novorossiysk went to the Atlantic.
Two French warships, with concerns that the submarine could explode, set sail to the area to queue the tight sub -subset. A Spanish frigate also patrolled around, and after the incident, the flight radars took more than one NATO plane that took it to the sky over the Gibraltar Strait.
The seas around Gibraltar are followed by all the ships passing through the Bosphorus, NATO and the Spanish navy, which functions as a drowning point for all Mediterranean transport traffic.
At the beginning of this month, these forces followed the narrow channel between North Africa and Southern Europe, followed by the Russian intelligence ship Viktor Leonov.
Although these military movements are a regular event, the Black Sea fleet became increasingly more important for the Kremlin, who was injured by the decision to close the Bosphorus Strait after the Ukrainian War of Türkiye.
This effectively rejects the fleet’s access to the Mediterranean and wider international waters, and more rely on submarines such as Novorossiysk for international operations.
