A major search-and-rescue mission is under way for a tourist submersible that went missing during an expedition to visit the wreckage of the Titanic.

Communication was lost with the vessel on Sunday evening, about 700 kilometres (435 miles) off the Canadian coast.

Al Jazeera’s Alan Fisher reports from Washington, DC.
