WW2 destroyer located off Norway

A wreath-laying ceremony is to be held later for 110 people who died when their Royal Navy destroyer was sunk off Norway during World War II. . .

HMS Hunter, an 1,880-tonne H-class destroyer, had a crew of 145 - 110 of whom were killed when it was sunk . . .

There have been several attempts to find the vessel over the years, but it was the Norwegian mine hunter Hnoms Tyr, while on an exercise with the Royal Navy, the Norwegian navy and the Dutch navy, which made the discovery.
