Chief of Naval Operations Adm. Mike Gilday issued a statement regarding the Indonesian submarine that is believed to be sunk, Apr. 24.
I am deeply saddened to learn the Indonesian submarine lost at sea earlier this week is now believed sunk. Our thoughts and prayers are with the Indonesian Navy, their Sailors and all those families who lost loved ones.
As Sailors, we share a love for the sea and have a bond of fellowship with all who sail on it. We have a respect for its dangers and also understand the importance of the worlds’ oceans to our collective way of life.
No doubt, Indonesia is a good friend and partner. Despite this tragic loss, it is my hope that we will continue to operate together in support of a free and open Indo-Pacific.
