Good morning listeners. Its ten oclock in the morning and youre listening to
Headline News in 007 Archid FM. Im Mike Tjokro. The first newsworthy event comes from
Moscow. A Russians journalist has uncovered evidence of another Soviet nuclear catastrophe,
which killed ten sailors and contaminated an entire town.
Yelena Vazrshavskya is the first journalist to speak to people who witnessed the
explosion of a nuclear submarine at the naval base of Shkotovo 22, near Vladivostock.
The accident, which occurred 13 months before the Chernobyl disaster, spread
radioactive fallout. The base and nearby town, were covered up by officials of the Soviet
Union. Residents were told that the explosion was in the reactor of the Victor submarine. It
was said to be a thermal and not nuclear explosion. Those involved in the clean up operation
to remove more than 600 tons of contaminated material were sworn to secrecy.
A board of investigators were later to describe it as the worst accident in the history of
the Soviet Navy.
OK listeners, thats the first news for today. I am coming back soon with some other
important news. So, stay tuned to 007 FM Archid Radio Station.

Hello, listeners, youre still with me Mike Tjokro from 007 FM Archid, the one and
only radio station for all. Thanks for joining with us again. The latest news for today comes
from Kendari, southeast Sulawesi. It is about the Kendari SAR team that have found three
more victims. Here is the news in detail.

On Thursday a search-and-rescue team found three more victims from a ship that sank
in the Banda Sea. They had been missing since the accident occurred on Friday last week.
They were Aris Triono, the captain of the Amami Cargo ship, Yakub, a crew-man, and
Suharto, a passenger.
They were found on Thursday floating in waters close to Menui Island, Central
Sulawesi province. The province is adjacent to the southeast Sulawesi province and the
Banda Sea.
Two other victims were earlier saved by the SAR team in the Banda Sea on Saturday
last week, only a day after the ship sank due to bad weather.
The SAR team is still searching for ten crew members and a passenger still missing
from the incident, said Rocky Asikin, the head of Kendari SAR team.
