VLADIVOSTOK, Russia, Jan. 12 (UPI) -- Two Russian icebreakers freed a fishing factory ship from the Gulf of Sakhalin Wednesday and began piloting it to open water, a shipping company said.
The Sodruzhestvo had been stuck in the ice about 12 miles offshore before being rescued by the Krasin and the Admiral Makarov, spokeswoman Tatyana Kulikova told ITAR-Tass.
