Ah! There you are!
Russian submarine hit Royal Navy warship ['s towed array sonar] in North Atlantic:
A Russian submarine collided with a Royal Navy warship on patrol in the North Atlantic, the Ministry of Defence (MOD) has confirmed. HMS Northumberland had been tracking the submarine when it hit the ship's sonar - a piece of equipment being trailed hundreds of metres behind it.
HMS Northumberland was searching for the submarine in the Arctic Circle after it disappeared from the ship's radar, according to Channel 5, which was filming for its Warship: Life at Sea series. The MOD said the frigate had located the hunter-killer submarine using the towed array sonar - a long tube fitted with sensitive hydrophones to listen under the water.

Novak Djokovic will be deported if he hasn't told truth, deputy PM says:
World number one men's tennis player Novak Djokovic should be deported from Australia if he has not told the truth about his exemption from vaccination rules, the deputy prime minister says. Barnaby Joyce told the BBC that rich people "can't wander around the world thinking... they are above the laws".
Djokovic, who had travelled to play in the Australian Open, is in immigration detention after his entry was denied. The 34-year-old Serbian player, who has said he is opposed to vaccination, had been granted a medical exemption to play in the tournament in Melbourne for unspecified reasons, a decision that infuriated many Australians.
The exemption was given by two independent medical panels organised by Tennis Australia, the body that runs the event, and Victoria state, tournament organisers said.
Doesn't believe in vaccination? Imagines he "knows" more than medical scientists. Yet he is a "devout Christian", which equates to believing without evidence (in a non-existence). IDIOT!
No jab? No entry. Australians have spent far too long in lockdowns to allow a self-opinionated, anti-science clown to flout rules.

Quite right, Oz!
Novak Djokovic: Australia cancels top tennis player's visa:
Djokovic has not spoken about his vaccination status, but last year he said he was "opposed to vaccination". After an outcry, his visa to enter Australia was dramatically revoked on his arrival in Melbourne.
The world number one was held in the city's airport for several hours before border forces announced he had not met entry rules and would be deported. He has reportedly now been taken to a government detention hotel pending his departure on an outbound flight. The developments come amid a backlash over a vaccine exemption Djokovic said he got to play in the Australian Open.
In a statement, the Australian Border Force said Djokovic "failed to provide appropriate evidence to meet the entry requirements to Australia, and his visa has been subsequently cancelled.
