Relative of Sergei Kalinin
Fedora Tihaya, 86, relative of Sergei Kalinin, warrant officer of the sunken Kursk nuclear submarine, looks at photos taken from the family album while listening to the latest news on the ill-fated submarine on the radio in a small village of Lelyki, some 100 km (62,5 miles) east of Ukrainian capital Kiev on Tuesday, August 22, 2000. The eldrely woman has no TV, and the only source of information is an old-fashioned radio. She has spent long nine days standing at the corner and listening to the news, cherishing a hope that Sergei is alive. Sergei Kalinin was one of 118 sailors dead on board the submarine as a result of a tragedy.
