Researchers from Norway's Institute of Marine Research and MAREANO have discovered the wreckage of a British Submarine, the HMS Thistle, which sank during World War II off the coast of Norway. The wreckage was initially found in 2023 but was only recently identified. The discovery was made during a routine cruise when researchers noticed "strange structures" and explored the seabed with an underwater camera. After consulting with naval experts and museums, the researchers determined that it was likely the HMS Thistle. The submarine sank in 1940 after being torpedoed by a German submarine, and all 53 crew members died.
