the search for a missing deep sea subversive pool in the north atlantic. is that a critical stage as fear as grow, that the oxygen on board will soon run out. international search teams are in a race against time as they try to locate the missing vessel, which has 5 people on board. it disappeared on sunday on a dive to the titanic wreckage site. it could be almost 4 kilometers under the ocean, off the coast of canada. it's hopes that underwater sounds that happened detected by sonar will help rescue where is narrow their search. yesterday, the canadian p 3 detected underwater noises in the search area. as a result of the operations were relocated in an attempt to explore the origin of the noises. although the r o v searches have yielded negative results, they continue. additionally, the data from the p 3 aircraft has been shared with our u. s. navy experts for further analysis,

which will be considered and future search plans. the surface search is now approximately 2 times the size of connecticut. and the sub surface search is up to 2 and a half miles deep. that's potentially expanding the size of the search area. well, nevertheless, rescuers say that they remain optimistic, but with the oxygen running out, the crew are expected to run out of breathable air. as of thursday morning, it's a huge task. searching for this of most of all the ones missing on sunday. for the 5 people on board, the vessel time is running out of conditions for the search of fall from my deal. we've had one of the worst springs and on record the worst spring since 1943, which of course is, is bad and not being on land. it's absolutely terrible. being 600 kilometers are for sure. as we're talking, you know, 12 foot waves, a heavy fog,

very difficult to search and rescue conditions such as being coordinated in boston in the us. and there was still hope rescue teams of thought to have detected a knocking sound once every half hour. a possible sign of life and pointed to where the croft might be the big fear is that the titans of mussel is on the ocean floor. the titanic itself is lying, 3800 meters below the surface in absolute darkness. and wondering numerous pressure from the water above. it still won't clear what exactly went wrong, and why the submersible is missing a shuttle griffin jones. jeffrey believes there are 2 possibilities. yes, it's either a mechanical failure or an electrical failure. and if i'm hoping it's an electrical failure, because they do have weights, one of the safety procedures that they have is to make themselves wider. so if

you're heavier than the water, you think if you're lighter than the water you float, the expedition operates as ocean gates have been widely criticized. long before titans disappearance expects worried about safety. but we knew this was going to happen at some point along the way and knew darn well it would and we knew all the difficulties there would be about how do you recover from that stuff is stuck on a shipwreck. if they lose batteries, if they're caught on the bottom some other way and nothing was done about risky teams, are still hoping for favorable outcome. that's a search and rescue operation. this step has never before been attempted. here's a look at some other stories making headlines around the world. western nations have pledged billions of dollars more in non military aid to help rebuild to crane . and indeed out corruption. keep says that recovering from russia's invasion will
