Three Dutch World War Two ships considered war graves have vanished from the bottom of the Java Sea, the Dutch defence ministry says.

All three were sunk by the Japanese during the Battle of the Java Sea in 1942, and their wrecks were discovered by divers in 2002.

A report in the Guardian says three British ships have disappeared as well.

The British government says it is "distressed" by the reports and is investigating

Then Kimmy would create some magical story about how he single handedly raised those wreck sites and brought them home for the wonderful nation of N.Korea to show the world their capabilities. Attendance is mandatory.

Hurricanes and cyclones can move shite around. Not sure if that area gets that type of weather, though.
