    A naval vessel is operating in coastal waters near a green, hilly shoreline while a large explosion or controlled detonation occurs in the water nearby. A tall column of dark smoke and water spray rises from the surface, consistent with an underwater mine detonation or ordnance disposal operation. The scene appears to be a military exercise or mine countermeasures operation.

    A naval vessel is operating in coastal waters near a green, hilly shoreline while a large explosion or controlled detonation occurs in the water nearby. A tall column of dark smoke and water spray rises from the surface, consistent with an underwater mine detonation or ordnance disposal operation. The scene appears to be a military exercise or mine countermeasures operation.
    Two scuba divers are kneeling on a sandy seabed, working together on what appears to be a rope or line rigging system with an anchor point. A yellow lift bag or marker buoy is visible on the seafloor between them, and lines extend upward toward the surface. The water is clear and blue, suggesting moderate to good visibility at depth.
