Time is not on the side of relief, and the news brought by the US Coast Guard on Tuesday evening does not invite optimism. During a press conference given at 7 p.m. (French time), Captain Jamie Frederick first announced that the search carried out by the emergency services has so far “produced no results”.

From Boston, in the United States, he also announces that the five passengers of the submersible “Titan” only have “40 hours of breathing oxygen” left on board. What to hold until around 11 am Thursday, French time.

The captain gave more details on the rescue operation carried out by American and Canadian relief. For example, he assured that the coast guard sent a remote-controlled vehicle equipped with a camera to the last known location of the submarine. It will be joined in the evening by the Canadian Coast Guard and other US Navy vessels. Private vessels would even take part in the search.
