Cartagena, Spain—A Russian cargo ship likely carrying two nuclear reactors for submarines, possibly destined for North Korea, suffered a series of explosions and sank in unexplained circumstances, about 60 miles off the coast of Spain, a CNN investigation has found.The extraordinary fate of the Ursa Major has been shrouded in secrecy since it sank on December 23, 2024.

US nuclear “sniffer” aircraft have flown over the sunken ship twice in the past year, according to public flight data.

It confirmed that the ship’s Russian captain had told Spanish investigators the Ursa Major was carrying “components for two nuclear reactors similar to those used in submarines,” and that he was unsure if they were loaded with nuclear fuel.The series of events which led the Ursa Major to sink to the bottom of the Mediterranean Sea remains unclear. It may have involved the use of a rare type of torpedo to breach the ship’s hull, according to the Spanish investigation, as described by the source familiar with its contents. The incident occurred in the closing days weeks of Joe Biden’s presidency, when the war in Ukraine was peaking in Moscow’s favor, and there was a strong US desire not to directly escalate with Moscow.The Ursa Major is seen in a photo t
