Eight soldiers have tested positive for drugs, the Ministry of Defence confirmed today.

The men, who are all in the 2nd Battalion of the Royal Regiment of Fusiliers, were found to have traces of cocaine and cannabis during a compulsory drug test in July.

An MoD spokesman said: 'Eight members of the 2nd Royal Regiment of Fusiliers have provided positive samples as part of the Army's compulsory drug testing programme.'

He said 'internal action' would be taken against the soldiers, adding: 'The army treats drug-taking very seriously and appropriate action is being taken against all eight soldiers.'
