Some of them may have been damaged.

On July 30, a super-powerful earthquake with a magnitude of more than 8 points struck the Kamchatka Peninsula. As Telegram publicks report, an interesting nuance is that the epicenter is not far from an important facility of Russia's aggressor country, writes "Glavred".

It is about the Russian Navy base Rybachy, where submarines are based. It is located in Achinsk Bay, which is 130 kilometers from the earthquake localization point.

It is worth noting that the Russians store such nuclear submarines at this submarine base as the K-44 Ryazan, which carries 16 R-29R ballistic missiles, the K-550 Alexander Nevsky, as well as nuclear submarines with improved stealth systems and UGST Physik-2 torpedoes.

Could submarines be damaged

A powerful earthquake in Kamchatka caused a tsunami that artificial intelligence predicts could damage submarines if they were in the epicenter. But this is only possible if they are not deep in the water, but on the surface, or near the shore.
