Russian scuba divers dived for the first time ever to explore the wreck soviet submarine that was drowned off Bulgaria shore at the Black Sea at the time of the world war 2. This is supposed to be the submarine of the soviet Black Sea Navy L-24, that drowned in 1942. All 57 crew members then died. The most probable cause of drowning seems to have been the explosion of sea mine, believe the scuba divers, who discovered a big hole in the submarine's left board. The joint Russian-Bulgarian expedition "Bow to the Great Victory's Warships" has been taking place before the forthcoming celebration of the 65-th anniversary of the victory over the fascist Germany in the World War II. A memorial plate to honor the submarine crew is being planned to be mounted on the submarine's framework.
