The Estonian military officially announced that the wrecks of three British warships that sank in the Baltic Sea off the coast of Estonia after World War I were found.
The wrecks of the HMS Cassandra, HMS Gentian and HMS Myrtle were found near the island of Saaremaa, about 90 miles southwest of the capital of Tallinn.
The report didn't say what condition the ships were in.
These ships were part of a British squadron sent to the Baltic Sea 1918-1919 to deliver arms to Estonia, a newly established state fighting for its independence against the Bolsheviks and Germans.
