Russian president Vladimir Putin dived to the bottom of the Gulf of Finland aboard a submersible to explore a Soviet submarine which was sunk during World War Two.
The Shchuka-class submarine Shch-308 sunk in October 1942 near the island of Gogland, west of St Petersburg, the Russian capital.
In scenes which made Mr Putin appear like a villain from a James Bond film, Mr Putin was pictured smiling in the underwater craft, a C-Explorer 3.11 submersible.
Its airtight glass bubble protected Mr Putin, who first became Russian president in 1999 and has continuously ruled the country since 2012.
In one photo, Mr Putin was seen peering out of the open lid of the craft.
In others, the submersible floated on top of the water as the Russian president peered out.
The hull of the sunken submarine was discovered in September 2018 lying on the seabed north of Bolshoi Tyuters Island.
It is thought to have been sunk after hitting a German mine and all of the 40-man crew were killed.
