The wrecks of HMS Prince of Wales and HMS Repulse have apparently been hit by Chinese salvagers. Photos were posted online of a Chinese salvage ship anchored over the HMS Prince of Wales wreck, while another photo shows large chunks of scrap metal on a beach, along with a soldier standing on one of Prince of Wales' secondary guns, along with an anchor in the foreground. (The ship is upside down, so the fact that a secondary gun has been salvaged does not bode well for how much was left on the bottom.)
