Raising a sunken barge on the Neva River

Russia. St. Petersburg. Loading a part of the deckhouse of the sunken dry cargo ship "Kaunas" onto a barge near the Liteiny Bridge on the Neva River. On August 16, 2002, the dry cargo ship "Kaunas" lost control, collided with a bridge support, got a hole and sank. It was decided to cut up the dry cargo ship, which was interfering with navigation, and raise it in pieces. Yuri Belinsky/TASS
