BALI (AFP, XINHUA) - The missing Indonesian submarine has been found and all the crew members on board perished, the Indonesian authorities said on Sunday (April 25).
The wreckage of the missing vessel was located on the sea floor off Bali island, Indonesian Military Chief Hadi Tjahjanto and Navy Chief of Staff Yudo Margono said.
Search-and-rescue efforts for the submarine with 53 crew members had gone on for days, with the Indonesian Armed Forces announcing on Saturday that they had found debris believed to be from the vessel.
The submarine was taking part in torpedo-firing drill off Bali on Wednesday when it dove and lost contact.
Assets from foreign countries have been deployed to help with the search-and-rescue efforts, including from Singapore, Malaysia and the United States.
