Dead in the Water

13:46 GMT 10.02.2017 (Updated: 16:30 GMT 10.02.2017)

The entire British attack submarine fleet is reportedly non-operational at the moment and cannot protect the UK waters, the Sun reported, citing a source in the Royal Navy.

Five submarines, including HMS Triumph, Torbay, Artful, Talent and Trenchant, are under repair after breaking down while HMS Ambush is being fixed after crashing into a merchant ship in the Gibraltar area in July 2016.

According to the Sun, British Prime Minister Theresa May has not been informed of the situation.
