THE SUNKEN KURSK SUBMARINE IS LIFTED WITH STEEL CABLES TO GIANT-4
BARGE.
The sunken Kursk nuclear submarine is lifted on steel cables under the
Giant-4 barge in the Barents Sea. The wrecked submarine was raised from
the Barents Sea floor in an unprecedented salvage operation. Clamped
beneath the barge that lifted it on 26 steel cables, the Kursk arrived
in the waters of Roslyakovo port on Wednesday. Picture taken October 8,
