The Year 1968

Before going further, let’s take a look at some submarine-related activities that took place in 1968, the same year Minerve sank in the Mediterranean. Interestingly, yet heart-wrenching, it seemed a lot of submarine disasters were planned for that year, with all of them happening mysteriously. This series of mysterious disasters would be like something straight out of the Bermuda Triangle in its obscurity and lack of notable clues or discoveries.

Two days before Minerve sank, an Israeli Navy submarine, INS Dakar, went missing in the Mediterranean (January 1968). Then by March the same year, a Russian boat sub-K-129 disappeared in the North Pacific, and then by May, USS Scorpion, an American nuclear submarine, went MIA in the Atlantic. It seemed like no country’s navy was safe from the enigmatic devastation, with none of them being able to make sense of it all.
