U.S. and British Teams Arrive to Aid in Russian Sub Rescue

PETROPAVLOVSK-KAMCHATSKY, (say that five times fast)Russia (AP) -- U.S. and British planes carrying robotic undersea vehicles landed in Russia's Far East on Saturday to help rescue seven sailors trapped in a mini-submarine with a dwindling oxygen supply far below the Pacific Ocean. Authorities couldn't say exactly how much air remained, but a top Navy official Saturday said the supply should last until the end of the rescue.
