| Canadian submarine in distress off Irish coast: British navy |
| 2004-10-05 |
| A Canadian submarine sent a distress signal from the North Atlantic Ocean off the coast of Ireland, the British navy said, adding that a military rescue operation was under way. A helicopter left the Royal Air Force's Prestwick base in Scotland, and a Nimrod long-range sea patrol plane was being dispatched to the Chicoutimi submarine, located 100 nautical miles (180 kilometers) northwest of Ireland, the navy spokesman told AFP. "We are responding and assisting," he said, without elaborating on the submarine's problem. "I can say no more" seriously, good luck lads, our prayers are with you |
