In Murmansk, Russia, around 22.15 Kyiv time, the nuclear-powered container ship-ice ship Sevmorput suddenly caught fire. He was at the Atomflot pier. This was stated in a message from the Russian propaganda resource TASS on Sunday, December 24.
“As the regional emergency services have told us, there may be a fire on a nuclear-powered container ship docked at the Atomflot berth,” the statement said.
It is known that the fire covered 30 square meters. Later information came out that the fire on the container ship had been extinguished. It appears that no one was injured in the incident.
Note that this was the largest of all four nuclear-powered merchant ships ever built.
The Russian Federation has previously said that the Northern Sea Route will exhaust its resources by 2024.
The ship was built in 1988 at the Kerch shipyard “Zaliv” (temporarily occupied Crimea). In November 2020, her single propeller blade broke. They tried to carry out repairs at sea, but it was unsuccessful. The ship interrupted its voyage to Antarctica and returned to St. Petersburg. The renovation was only completed in August 2021.
The aggressor country Russia completed the construction of two nuclear submarines (NPS) – the multi-purpose submarine “Krasnoyarsk” and the strategic “Emperor Alexander III”.
Russian Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu appointed a new commander of the missile cruiser Moscow, which was destroyed in April 2022.
