disclaimer

in.fondo.al.mar is not able to assert with absolute certainty whether the suspicious ships lie exactly in the point indicated on the map, and whether they effectively contain toxic and radioactive waste. The only way to verify these elements, is to send a ROV, (Remotely operated underwater vehicle) to all the sites in which the incidents have taken place.
