Newsweek: Russian Admiral Again Alleges NATO Submarine Responsible for 2000 Kursk Explosion 

A retired Russian admiral alleged that the 2000 Kursk submarine explosion was the result of a collision with a NATO submarine, going against the official ruling that the explosion was caused by a faulty torpedo. 

The Kursk sank on August 12, 2000 after two explosions. Most of the 118 crewmembers were killed instantly, but 23 managed to escape to a rear compartment to wait for help. 

However, the Russian navy waited hours before launching the search, refusing to accept Western help. 

It took a week for them to accept outside help, at which point it was too late to save anyone.
