Two divers who went missing off the Pembrokeshire coast, sparking a major sea search, have been found. | |
Milford Haven Coastguard said the two men, both in their 50s, had not been seen since leaving a diveboat at Strumble Head, Pembrokeshire. | |
It is understood they are conscious and are currently in a rescue helicopter being taken to a hospital where there is a decompression chamber. | |
They were found by an RAF rescue helicopter. | |

Four lifeboats from Fishguard and St David's were searching the area, along with the helicopter. | |
