Icebreaker escorts on the Northern Sea Route: learning from the Baikal: Vladivostok failure

A single catastrophic failure can sharpen safety systems across an entire ocean. The 2024 Baikal, Vladivostok accident in the Yenisey Gulf exposed layered failures in icebreaker escort operations on the Northern Sea Route.
