Indonesia military says missing submarine sank with dozens aboard

13 Sept 23:19 Key points summarised by AI

The Indonesian navy confirmed that the KRI Nanggala 402 submarine, missing off Bali with 53 crew, has sunk after search parties recovered fragments from the vessel.
Hopes for survivors diminished as the submarine's three-day oxygen supply was believed to have run out by early Saturday.
Retrieved items, including parts of the torpedo system and a prayer mat, indicate the submarine sustained damage from external pressure, leading to its sinking.
The search for the submarine and its crew continues, though officials warn that deep waters make recovery efforts extremely risky and difficult.

Myanmar's detained Nobel laureate, Aung San Suu Kyi, received a package from Britain's King Charles III, which included two gardening books, a sealed envelope, and diplomatic communication.
The event marked the first release of images of Suu Kyi in two months and saw Myanmar authorities describe her as a "special female prisoner" for the first time.
Suu Kyi, who was deposed in a 2021 military coup that triggered an ongoing civil war, remains under house arrest on charges that rights groups contend are politically motivated.
