BREAKING: Banging sounds have been picked up by sonar devices deployed in the search for the submersible Live updates: 📺 Sky 501, Virgin 602, Freeview 233 and YouTube
The US Coastguard confirms Remote Underwater Vehicles were redeployed in response to reports of banging to explore the origin of the noises. Those ROV searches have yielded negative results but continue. Regular banging sounds have been picked up by sonar devices deployed in the search for the submersible.
A scientist who visited the wreck in 2000 and was caught in a strong underwater current at the site says his"heart goes out to the people who are lost" in the Titan vessel. He said:"I really hit a brick wall and realised this is the end of it. This voice in my head, I’ll never forget the words: this is how it's going to end for you.
He said:"Anyone in the exploration business of the deep sea expected this to happen, not at this particular time, but we knew this was going to happen at some point. Pakistani businessman Shahzada Dawood, 48, and his 19-year-old son Suleman, who are both British citizens, are among the five people on board Titan.
He suggests that"something had to happen midway that caused them to lose power or radio communications". Oceanographer and deep sea explorer Dr David Gallo described Mr Nargeolet, 73, as his"best friend and also one of my closest colleagues".He told Sky News:"I'm still hoping against hope, probably, for a happy ending but the longer we go in time the more likely it is that it's not going to be a happy ending. I'm not giving up, but reality is just starting to set in right now.
He adds that in France, Mr Nargeolet is known as Mr Titanic given his experience and the number of dives he's taken to the wreck.The US Coast Guard gave an update at 6pm UK time, and said the search for the Titan vessel has"yielded no results".
