Imploded Titanic sub shown for the first time as remaining pieces brought to shore

The first photos have been released showing the remains of the Titanic sub being taken ashore.

Last week, a huge search and rescue operation was launched after the tiny submersible, carrying five passengers, disappeared.

Those on board included: Hamish Harding, Paul-Henri Nargeolet, Shahzada Dawood, Suleman Dawood, and OceanGate CEO Stockton Rush

Despite the best efforts of the US Coast Guard and other organisations, on Thursday (22 June), it was revealed that debris had been found in the search area.

The Coast Guard stated that the most likely scenario was that the vessel, named Titan, had suffered a ‘catastrophic implosion’, and that everyone on board had died.

Now, following the tragic news, the first images of the debris discovered by the authorities have been released.

In the photos, large pieces of the Titan can be seen being taken ashore.

Following the search for the wreckage, the remains were unloaded from US Coast Guard ship Sycamore and the Horizon Arctic at the Canadian Coast Guard pier in St John’s, Newfoundland.

The debris was discovered around 1,600 feet from the bow of the Titanic, it was reported.
