The Argentine Navy continues the search for the missing submarine ARA San Juan, with assistance from Russia's Yantar and Argentina's ARA Espiro. Despite 54 visualized contacts, none matched the submarine. The ARA San Juan had 44 crew members, and their families are waiting for news in Mar del Plata. There is no set deadline for the search, though Russian collaboration may end. Two hypotheses are considered: internal pressure at depth or an implosion. Argentina has sought help from five companies and received support from 13 countries since November 15, but no results have been found. A battery failure was reported before contact was lost.
