JAKARTA -- An Indonesian submarine with 53 people aboard lost contact with the navy after a training drill near the sea in Bali, a navy spokesman told the media on Wednesday.
The Indonesian military, quoted by the media, said it has sought help from Singapore and Australia in the search mission.
The German-made KRI Nangaa-402 submarine was reportedly conducting a torpedo drill in waters north of the resort island of Bali when losing contact early Wednesday.
It is believed to be at the depth of about 700 meters (2,300 feet).
