Great news for the families - Argentina submarine: ARA San Juan found

https://www.bbc.com/news/world-latin-america-46245686

The ARA San Juan submarine disappeared 430km (270 miles) off the Argentine coast on 15 November 2017.
The navy stopped its rescue mission two weeks after the sub's disappearance.
However, a year and a day after it went missing, officials announced it had been found 800m (2,620ft) below the surface of the Atlantic Ocean.
Who are the crew of the missing Argentine submarine?
According to a tweet from the Argentine navy, the ARA San Juan had been positively identified under the water by a US company.
The navy had earlier shared a picture from the seabed, suggesting a 60m-long object might be the missing submarine.
