After the sinking, Russian newspaper Kommersant reported the Ursa Major was carrying port cranes and hatches designed to cover the nuclear reactors of a new icebreaker being built in Vladivostok.

Hmm, that makes sense, if they’re too big to transport by rail. But still, why was it headed into the Mediterranean if they were going to be delivered to Vladivostok or North Korea? Is Russia building ships for North Korea in Sevastopol or Novorossiysk?

Sucks to suck.

This is not recent news …
But for some odd reason I keep seeing this story pop up on random sites at least monthly this year.

What else may it have been carrying?
