"The fire on the ship is localized, there is no open burning, puffs of white smoke burst out onto the deck, which should indicate the absence of open burning," Rakhmanova quoted RIA Novosti as saying.
According to him, "the temperature in neighboring compartments does not exceed the permissible norm."
He also confirmed that among the workers who carried out repairs on the ship, there were no missing and injured.
Earlier it was reported that two crew members of the cruiser "Admiral Kuznetsov" were injured in the respiratory tract during the fire.
