It's been described as the biggest boating disaster in Russia's modern history. In the space of just three minutes, a pleasure cruiser with 208 people onboard went down in the Volga river, taking over half of its passengers with it. Nearly 130 people were killed, many of them children. A week later, the operation to raise the ship from the bottom is underway.
