A detachment of ships of the Northern Fleet (SF) consisting of the large anti-submarine ship Severomorsk, the large landing ship Georgy Pobedonosets and the rescue tugboat Pamir left the port of Dudinka in the direction of the Kara Sea.
The Severomors spent a week in the capital of Taimyr. They arrived there on 7 September. During this time, the servicemen of the Northern Fleet organized a large cultural program for the residents of Dudinka and Norilsk, held sports competitions with local volleyball and football teams. A friendly ice hockey match took place on the Taimyr ice arena between the team of the detachment of warships and representatives of the city administration of Dudinka.
The Severomors gave lessons of courage in the educational institutions of the city of Dudinka. More than 3 thousand local residents visited the large anti-submarine ship "Severomorsk" on an excursion. On board, 50 Taimyr schoolchildren were admitted to the ranks of the All-Russian youth military-patriotic public movement Yunarmiya.
