Question: The Russian ironclad Ne Tron Menia sunk in what event that was also known as the Leningrad Blockade that started on September 8th, 1941?
Context: "Ne Ver', Ne Bojsia" (Russian: Не ве́рь, не бо́йся , 'Don't believe, don't fear' ) also known as "Ne Ver', Ne Boisia, i Ne Prosi" ("Don't Believe, Don't Fear and Don't Ask") is a song by t.A.T.u. that they performed at the 2003 Eurovision Song Contest while representing Russia.  Although the duo placed a close third, the song got much attention. The 872-day Siege of Leningrad, Russia, resulted from the failure of the German Army Group North to capture Leningrad in the Eastern Front of World War II.  The siege lasted from September 8, 1941 to January 27, 1944 and was one of the longest and most destructive sieges in history, causing considerable devastation to the city of Leningrad (now Saint Petersburg). Leningrad (Russian: Ленинград ), also known as Gruppirovka Leningrad (Russian: Группировка "Ленинград" ) and Bandformirovanie Leningrad (Russian: Бандформирование "Ленинград" ), is a popular Russian rock band from Saint Petersburg (formerly Leningrad), led by Sergey "Shnur" Shnurov. The Siege of Leningrad, also known as the Leningrad Blockade (Russian: блокада Ленинграда , transliteration: "blokada Leningrada") was a prolonged military blockade undertaken mainly by the German Army Group North against Leningrad, historically and currently known as Saint Petersburg, in the Eastern Front theatre of World War II.  The siege started on 8 September 1941, when the last road to the city was severed.  Although the Soviets managed to open a narrow land corridor to the city on 18 January 1943, the siege was only lifted on 27 January 1944, 872 days after it began.  It is regarded as the longest and most destructive siege in history, and possibly the costliest in terms of casualties. At least six ships of the Imperial Russian Navy have been named Ne Tron Menia (Russian: Не тронь меня - Touch me not). Boris Vasilyevich Numerov (Russian: Борис Васильевич Нумеров ; January 29, 1891—September 13, 1941) was a Russian astronomer, land-surveyor and geophysicist.  Born in Novgorod and graduated from the St. Petersburg University in 1913, he created various astronomic and mineralogical instruments, as well as for various algorithms and methods that bear his name.  He was a member of the Academy of Sciences, observer at Pulkovo from 1913–1915, astronomer at the observatory of the University of Leningrad from 1915 to 1925, and director of the Central Observatory of Geophysics (1926–27), and Professor at the University of Leningrad (1924–1937).  He was also the founder and director of the "Institute for Theoretical Astronomy" in Leningrad. The Russian ironclad "Ne Tron Menia" (Russian: Не тронь меня ) was the second of the three "Pervenets"-class broadside ironclads built for the Imperial Russian Navy during the mid-1860s.  She joined the Baltic Fleet upon completion and never left Russian waters.  Beginning in 1870 the ship was assigned to the Gunnery Training Detachment and was frequently rearmed.  "Ne Tron Menia" was placed in reserve and hulked a decade later.  In 1905 the ship was disarmed and she was sold in 1908.  After the end of the Russian Civil War, she was acquired by the Soviets before being sold to a factory in 1925.  The ship was sunk in the Siege of Leningrad during World War II and was scrapped after she was salvaged in 1950. The 55th Army was formed on 1 September 1941 as part of the Leningrad Front.  It was formed from the Task Force of Major General I.G. Lazarev and the 19th Rifle Corps headquarters.  The army fought in the Leningrad Strategic Defensive Operation.  At the time, it was the largest of the four armies defending Leningrad, with up to half of the active formations.  Using the defenses of the Slutsk-Kolpino Fortified Area, the army defended Leningrad's southern approaches in the area of Kolpino, Krasnogvardeysk, Zaborje, Vyritsa, the Izhora River and the Tosna River.  Its units stopped the German advance at Putrolovo, Bolshoye Kuzmino, Novaya and Verkhneye Kuzmino.  From October 1941 to December 1942, the army carried out local offensives to improve its positions.  In November, Vladimir Sviridov replaced Lazarev.  On 20 December the army began an attack at Mga, later joined by the 54th Army, to distract from the upcoming Lyuban Offensive Operation but was unsuccessful.  On 23 July 1942 a rifle division and a tank brigade of the army attacked the SS Polizei Division south of Kolpino.  The attack made some gains.  On 26 September elements of two of the army's rifle divisions were sent across the Neva to reinforce the encircled 8th Army.  After losing two of three bridgeheads, the 55th Army units withdrew across the Neva. The Medal "For the Defence of Leningrad" (Russian: Медаль «За оборону Ленинграда» ) was a World War II campaign medal of the Soviet Union established on December 22, 1942 by decree of the Presidium of the Supreme Soviet of the USSR to recognise the valour and hard work of the Soviet civilian and military defenders of Leningrad during the 872-day siege of the city by the German armed forces between September 8, 1941 and January 27, 1944.  The medal's statute was later amended by Resolution of the Presidium of the Supreme Soviet on March 8, 1945.  and again one last time on July 18, 1980 by decree of the Presidium of the Supreme Soviet of the USSR № 2523-X. The Battle of the Head of Passes was a bloodless naval battle of the American Civil War.  It was a naval raid made by the Confederate river defense fleet, also known as the “mosquito fleet” in the local media, on ships of the Union Blockade squadron anchored at the Head of Passes.  The mosquito fleet was supported by three fire rafts, which were ignited and followed the ironclad ram CSS "Manassas" into the action.  The attack occurred after moonset in the early hours of October 12, 1861, and routed the Union fleet, which fled in disorder down the Southwest pass of the delta.  After sunrise Commodore George N. Hollins ordered the mosquito fleet to withdraw upriver.
