INS Dakar was the former modified British T-class submarineTotem of the Royal Navy. In 1965, she was purchased by Israel as part of a group of three T-class submarines. She was commissioned into the Israeli Sea Corps in November 1967 and underwent sea and diving trials in Scotland. Dakar departed for Israel on 9 January 1968, but disappeared en route with all hands. Despite extensive searches over the course of three decades, Dakar's wreckage was not found until 1999, when it was located between the islands of Cyprus and Crete. A portion of the vessel was salvaged and is on display at the Naval Museum in Haifa. The exact cause of Dakar's sinking is not known. It was one of four mysterious submarine disappearances in 1968; the other being the French submarine Minerve (S647), the Soviet submarine K-129 and the US submarine USS Scorpion (SSN-589).
Early career
HMS Totem was built to the group 3 variant of the T class design at HM Dockyard Devonport and launched on 28 September 1943. The submarine was completed and commissioned in early 1945. After the end of World War II, Totem and the other surviving group 3 boats were equipped with submarine snorkels to allow longer periods of operation underwater. Between 1951 and 1953, Totem was one of eight boats converted to the "Super T" design, which allowed the vessel higher speed and quieter underwater operation.
Dakar (English pronunciation: /dɑːˈkɑːr, ˈdækər/;French:[da.kaʁ]) is the capital and largest city of Senegal.
It is located on the Cap-Vert Peninsula on the Atlantic coast and is the westernmost city in the Old World and on the African mainland. Its position, on the western edge of Africa, is an advantageous departure point for trans-Atlantic and European trade; this fact aided its growth into a major regional port.
According to 31 December 2005 official estimates, the city of Dakar proper has a population of 1,030,594, whereas the population of the Dakar metropolitan area is estimated at 2.45million people.
Dakar is a major administrative center, home to the Senegal National Assembly and the Presidential Palace.
History
Early history
The Cap-Vert peninsula was settled, no later than the 15th century, by the Lebou people, an aquacultural ethnic group related to the neighboring Wolof and Sereer. The original villages: Ouakam, Ngor, Yoff and Hann, still constitute distinctively Lebou neighborhoods of the city today. In 1444, the Portuguese reached the Bay of Dakar, initially as slave-raiders, but were repulsed by the natives on the shores. Peaceful contact was finally opened in 1456 by Diogo Gomes, and the bay was subsequently referred to as the "Angra de Bezeguiche" (after the name of the local ruler). The bay of "Bezeguiche" would serve as a critical stop for the Portuguese India Armadas of the early 16th century, where large fleets would routinely put in, both on their outward and return journeys from India, to repair, collect fresh water from the rivulets and wells along the Cap-Vert shore and trade for provisions with the local people for their remaining voyage. (It was famously during one of these stops, in 1501, where the Florentine navigator Amerigo Vespucci began to construct his "New World" hypothesis about America.)
Dakar is an album credited to jazz musician John Coltrane, released in 1963 on Prestige Records, catalogue 7280. Dakar is a reissue of one side of a 16 rpm LP called Baritones and French Horns released in 1957, and originally credited to the "Prestige All Stars".
As Coltrane's fame grew during the 1960s after he had stopped recording for Prestige, the record company assembled and reissued varied Coltrane recordings with his name prominently displayed, though in many cases, like on Dakar, he had originally been a sideman. However, a retrospective review for Allmusic suggested that issuing the album as if it were originally led by Coltrane was appropriate given that his "urgent" performances were often the most compelling.

Ins Dakar - submarine accident
The history of submarine accidents has been marred by several tragic events that underscore the inherent risks of underwater exploration. One of the most infamous disasters was the "Kursk" submarine incident in 2000 when the Russian nuclear-powered submarine succumbed to a devastating onboard explosion in the Barents Sea. The "USS Thresher" disaster in 1963 marked a significant setback for the United States Navy, as the nuclear-powered submarine sank during deep-sea testing, resulting in the loss of all crew members. In 1968, the "K-129" incident saw the Soviet ballistic missile submarine mysteriously vanish in the Pacific Ocean, suspected to have been caused by a missile explosion. The "ARA San Juan" tragedy in 2017 saddened the world when the Argentine navy submarine disappeared during a...

Lastly, the "K-19" incident in 1961 showcased the perilous consequences of a reactor malfunction, with the Soviet submarine's crew facing severe radiation risks. These heartbreaking accidents continue to remind us of the utmost importance of maritime safety, emergency response, and technological advancements in preventing future submarine catastrophes.
