Russia confirms Putin is commander in chief of highly-trained 'spy dolphin' units seized in Crimea from Ukraine

Russia has formally acknowledged that it has conscripted Ukraine's 'spy dolphins' which means they could now be used in underwater naval operations against the West.

The specially trained mammals were seized when Russia annexed Crimea in March, and now Moscow has officially ruled out handing them back.

The combat dolphins are trained for military duties at the Crimean State Oceanarium, which was inherited by Ukraine when the Soviet Union collapsed 23 years ago.

Acting Sevastopol governor governor Sergei Menyailo said: 'The jurisdiction over this facility has been fully transferred to the Russian Defence Ministry.'

      The article was quite funny and I don't remember another from the Daily Mail using British humour, as my mother was fond of saying, before. :)
