RUSSIAN SAILOR BARRICADES SELF INSIDE NUCLEAR SUB.

Publication: Monitor Volume: 4 Issue: 166

A 19-year-old conscript sailor has shot dead eight of his fellow-crewmen and barricaded himself inside a compartment in a nuclear submarine docked in Russia’s Arctic seaport, Murmansk. This is the latest in a series of recent fatalities in Russia’s underfunded armed forces. Mercifully, the submarine is docked and unarmed. (BBC, September 11)
