.Monument to Soviet submariners killed in WWII unveiled in Bulgaria.

SOZOPOL (Bulgaria), July 26 (Itar-Tass) -- The monument to Soviet
submariners, who perished in the Second World War off Bulgaria's coast,
was unveiled here on Sunday.
Representatives of Bulgarian public organizations, who initiated the
restoration of the monument, politicians, Russian diplomats and local
residents were participating in the unveiling ceremony in the city of
Sozopol on the southern Black Sea coast of Bulgaria. The Soviet
submariners were given the military tribute and a remembrance service was
held in commemoration of them.
Five Soviet submarines Shch-204, Shch-210, Shch-211, L-24 and S-34
were sunken off Bulgaria's coast during the Second World War. Russian and
Bulgarian divers have examined four of them. The S-34 sinking site has not
been found yet.
The monument to submariners in Sozopol was built in 1969 at the place,
where two dead S-34 submariners had been cast ashore in November 1941.
These submariners are executive officer Violet Dushin and bosun Flor
Terekhov.
"By all appearances, they happened to be the only S-34 crewmen, who
managed to get out of the sunken submarine. They had life jackets and
oxygen masks on. The found documents and a request to the Soviet military
archives permitted to find out that they were crewmen of the submarine
S-34," a member of the Black Sea technical diving team Mikhail Zaimov told
Itar-Tass. The diving team is searching for submarines that sank off
Bulgaria's coast.
"Our diving team has been searching for Soviet submarines for many
years. According to historians, five submarines were sunken in the
wartimes off Bulgaria's coast. The last submarine that we managed to find
and examine jointly with Russian divers was the submarine L-24 - the
minelayer Leninets. The minelayer carrying 57 crewmen hit a mine and sank
at the depth of 60 meters off Cape Shabla. We have been searching for the
submarine S-34, but in vain," Zaimov went on to say.
In the 80-90s of the previous century the memorial in Sozopol was
abandoned and only in 2010, when the 65th anniversary of the Great Victory
in the Second World War is celebrated, at the initiative of Bulgarian
public organizations and Russian compatriots living in Bulgaria and with
the active support of the Russian Embassy and the Consulate General in the
country necessary funds were raised and the memorial was restored. Marble
plaques with the names of all 237 crewmen of five Soviet submarines were
also unveiled there.
Sozopol Mayor Panayot Reizi, who together with Russian Consul General
in Varna Yuri Solovyev unveiled the monument, pledged that "the memorial
will be maintained properly and commemoration events dedicated to Soviet
submariners will be held there every year."
