The Listvyazhnaya mine disaster was a mining accident that occurred on 25 November 2021 in a coal mine in Kemerovo Oblast, Russia. Smoke from a fire in a ventilation shaft caused the suffocation of over 40 miners.[1] A failed attempt to rescue the trapped miners resulted in the deaths of at least five rescuers when the mine exploded.[1][2] It is the deadliest mine accident in Russia since the 2010 Raspadskaya mine explosion in the same region.[3]
