BRUSSELS - An intact German World War I submarine containing the bodies of 23 people has been found off the coast of Belgium, authorities said on Tuesday.

Western Flanders Governor Carl Decaluwe said that the find on the floor of the North Sea "is very unique".

"It's quite amazing that we found something like this," Decaluwe said. "The impact damage was at the front, but the submarine remains closed and there are 23 people still onboard."
