Two U.S. Army soldiers are missing in the Atlantic Ocean off Morocco's southern coast. The soldiers were part of an annual training exercise known as African Lion. A group of service members was on a hike to watch the sunset when one soldier fell into the water. Another soldier jumped in to save the service member, who couldn't swim, but was hit by a wave and both were having trouble getting back to shore. A third soldier jumped in but wasn't able to save the other two. Multiple aircraft, drones, divers, and vessels have been searching for the missing soldiers along Morocco's southern coast for the last three days.
