Royal Navy flagship HMS Ocean has arrived in the British Virgin Islands to support those affected by hurricanes Irma and Maria.
The ship arrived today with around 650 personnel and 60 tonnes of aid including construction equipment and other essential materials such as hygiene kits and water purification tablets.
Ocean’s arrival means there are now over 2,000 UK military personnel working on the relief effort, making it the largest deployment of UK personnel anywhere in the world.
