OP Trapped Russian Mini-Sub Crew Is Found Alive
Vessel Freed by British Undersea Vehicle
Washington Post, Sunday, August 7, 2005
The knife-edge drama was uncertain to the end. The British vessel had all but freed the mini-sub Sunday after it cut away two hoses and a steel cable, but it then malfunctioned and had to surface with some netting still entangling the mini-sub, called an AS-28 Priz. Officials said the Priz was caught on an underwater antenna system at a depth of around 600 feet, beyond the reach of Russian equipment.
