A French submarine 'La Minerve' that went missing, with 52 crew onboard in 1968, for more than 50 years, has been found by the French navy. The submarine was on a military exercise when it disappeared & repeated searches failed to find it until now. La Minerve was located on the seabed in the Mediterranean off the port of Toulon, at a depth of 2,370 metres, 27 miles from Toulon, which is home to a French naval base.
