    MOSCOW, December 17 (Itar-Tass) - The Tula nuclear-powered ballistic missile submarine of Russia’s Northern Fleet on Monday carried out a combat training launch of an intercontinental ballistic missile.

    Chief of the information and public relations service of the Russian Navy Captain Igor Dygalo said, “The underwater launch of the intercontinental ballistic missile was carried out from the Barents Sea on a target at the Kura range on the Kamchatka Peninsula.”

    “The launch has been carried out under the combat training schedule for checking the combat readiness of the Naval Strategic Nuclear Forces,” Dygalo specified. “The missile’s warhead hit the target at the range at the designated time,” he said.
