Falklands War: UK and Argentina mark invasion 30 years on

Argentina's president has described the UK's control over the Falkland Islands as unjust, as services are held in both Britain and Argentina to mark the 30th anniversary of the start of the war.

Cristina Fernandez said the UK's stance was "ridiculous and absurd".

UK PM David Cameron said the day should remember the dead from both countries.

A total of 255 British servicemen and about 650 Argentines died after the UK sent a task force following the Argentine invasion on 2 April 1982.

In a statement, Mr Cameron also said that he remained committed to upholding British sovereignty over the islands.

Meanwhile, the Royal Navy has confirmed one of its newest warships, HMS Dauntless, will leave the UK on Wednesday for a six-month routine deployment in the South Atlantic.       Read Here
