((It was a devestating setback for rescuers trying desparately to link up
with the stricken submarine's rear cargo hatch. Although the Russians
were finally able to dock one of their capsules with it, divers say the
hatch appears to be too damaged to open.
(nats, russian)
No sealed watertight connection is possible, the capsule's commander
said after the dive, that's why we can't go inside.
That further complicates this weekend's mission for the British LR5
submarine and more than a dozen Norwegian deep sea divers, all still
racing to the scene.
Cmdr. Alan Hoskins, Rescue Project Manager, "We're still making good progress."
There are other escape hatches under the bow section of the Kujrsk, but
they may not be there anymore. Diver say there's a gaping hole bursting two thirds down the sub's hull. Russians say it may be the result of a
collission with the unyielding hull of an ice breaker. But most analysts agree it was probablyh a massive internal explosion-- an accident-- a
theory backed up by recordings at nearby seismic stations.
In Moscow, Russian president Vladimir Putin returned from vacation to
tell reporters he personally knew the commander of the submarine. But if
his remarks were designed to show sympathy, it didn't work. It only
deepened the anger from stricken family members who criticized the
government for refusing to ask for help until days after the accident,
help the Russian foreign minister turned down yet again from the United States.
