now after hearing underwater noises they are redirecting their search zone, hoping they could close in on the vessel and find the five people on board still alive. for now, there are only theories about what could have gone wrong, did it get stuck under something or caught within something. was it within the titanic itself, and if so, when will rescuers, any sort of robotic ship or whatever, be able to get down there. time and oxygen are running out. but the u.s. coast guard insists that this is still a rescue mission. sometimes you re in a position where you have to make a tough decision. we re not there yet. joining us from newfoundland is ron allen and from boston, nbc news correspondent kristen dahlgren. ron, you just got done with a news conference up there with the people behind the vessel, the ship that the submersible launched from. what did we learn? reporter: yeah, a company called horizon maritime services, the polar prince. it s the first time we have heard
hello and welcome to the programme. the us coast guard says it estimates that the five people trapped onboard the missing submersible only have a day and a half s supply of oxygen left. ships and aircraft are descending on the remote part of the north atlantic, where the vessel was last seen. three of the people on board are british citizens including a 19 year old. contact was lost on sunday as it descended towards the wreck of the titanic hundreds of miles from shore. the passengers paid $250,000 each to go on the trip. jessica parker reports. these are the last known photos of the titan submersible. they were taken on sunday morning, just before it began its descent. one hour and a5 minutes later, contact was lost. it s a five man capsule. people crawl in. this was filmed by the bbc last year. it shows people being bolted in from the outside. the sub then plunges into the ocean s depths. the us coast guard has released a fresh estimate of how much oxygen may now be lef
we are expecting in the next little while to get an update from the us coast guard. certainly there s been no significant development, and of course, the submersible bench missing on sunday. these are the pictures of the bay in newfoundland where the coordinating of the rescue operation is being done. but there has been no updates since they lost contacts a minute an hour and 45 minutes into that dive. since then the search has been growing into the concern has been growing. we have been listening to those on bbc to the course of the day, listening to marine experts talking aboutjust the harshest of conditions on the sea bed. the total blackness that they will actually see, the cold the oxygen that is running out. it is a race against time. we are expecting to move a bit, but we are expecting the us coast guard will give us an update, and perhaps we will learn information in terms of where they are in terms of the size of the search operation. they are looking on the surfa
they ve doubled work patterns. they ve gone quasi war mobilisation without full mobilisation. they seem to be able to find spare parts for tanks and ships from abroad through what they call parallel imports or smuggling. so, russia s leader buckles down for a long war and was apparently dismissive of the recent african peace initiative, preferring to continue to fight. but could he be toppled if ukraine s counteroffensive succeeds? i think a major reverse in the south which threatens crimea, which putin s put so much stake on. if the bridges are dropped again, if russia has to evacuate forces and people from crimea, that s going to have political repercussions. and then the question is, of course, how does it layout? and then the question is, of course, how does it play out? i think the centre, putin s power, the tarnish. it s been weakened. a feeling of a slight sense of decay. there is a rout, a major reverse by the ukrainians, going to the heart of his grip on power and
