Rescue efforts continue for a missing Indonesian submarine with 53 crew aboard, believed sunk in deep water about 60 miles north of Bali.
Naval authorities said the sub s oxygen would be depleted by Saturday. The extreme depth may make recovery impossible, authorities said.
The KRI Nanggala-402 sub is thought to be 2,000 to 2,300 feet deep, which threatens to crush the vessel. Ahn Guk-hyeon, an official from South Korea’s Daewoo Shipbuilding and Marine Engineering, told The Associated Press that the collapse depth for the submarine was 200 meters (656 feet) when Daewoo refitted the vessel s internal structures and systems in 2009-2012.
