MOSCOW (Sputnik) – On Friday, the nuclear-powered submarines of the Russian Navy surfaced, breaking the ice as part of one expedition.
The commander-in-chief noted that the ice was one and a half meters thick. The submarines surfaced “according to a single concept and plan at the appointed time in an area with a radius of 300 meters.”
The Russian Defence Ministry has released a video showing the surfacing of the submarines.
