“The fire affected an area of some 20 square meters. The insulation between the hulls of the sub is burning,” a source told RIA Novosti news agency.
The fire at the Zvezdochka shipyard, in the Arkhangelsk Region town of Severodvinsk, started as welders were working at the K-266 Oryol, an Oscar II-class nuclear-powered submarine, the source said.
