Moscow. July 2. INTERFAX-The Russian military is conducting a special exercise to test the systems and weapons of submarines in the deep-water areas of the Barents and Norwegian Seas, the Northern Fleet said.

They said that the search and rescue support of the event is carried out by the forces of the emergency rescue squad of the Northern Fleet.
