Shoot-out on nuclear-powered submarine


Part of: Northern Fleet accidents and incidents


Eight sailors were shot dead on board a nuclear-powered Akula-class submarine moored at a naval base in Skalisty, Kola Peninsula. The incident occurred at 3:30 a.m. Moscow time today. The 18-year-old sailor barricaded himself in one of the submarine compartments after shooting eight crew mates. The commander of the Russian Navy, Admiral first name Kuroedov, and the commander of the Northern Fleet first name Yerofeev are now at the site of the incident, which remained unresolved at the time of writing.

11/09-1998
Tonight, at 3:30 a.m. Moscow time, a sailor shot eight fellow crew members and then barricaded himself in one of the submarine’s compartments. The incident started when the sailor, who was on duty in the aft part of the Akula-class submarine, started a quarrel with a crew colleague.

The sailor resolved the dispute by shooting his colleague with his Kalashnikov. He then went inside the submarine and killed seven other sailors, all conscripts, in their sleep.

The sailor, Aleksandr Kyzminikh, is an 18-year-old draftee from St. Petersburg. He is serving his two-year obligatory military service.
