The United States is sending “airborne assets” to help search for the Indonesian submarine that went missing with 53 crew members on board, Pentagon press secretary John Kirby said Thursday.
“We are deeply saddened by the news of Indonesia’s lost submarine, and our thoughts are with the Indonesian sailors and their families,” Kirby tweeted. “At the invitation of the Indonesian government, we are sending airborne assets to assist in the search for the missing submarine.”
