UK’s Royal Navy plans to deploy 100 marines to the Persian Gulf to protect British ships after a series of attacks on vessels, according to British media.

Plans for the deployment began several weeks ago and a security committee is expected to meet this week to discuss the matter, a local newspaper reported without revealing the source of the information.
