Ocean explorers announced Saturday that they have discovered the remains of a Japanese World War II vessel<\/a> that sank with over 1,000 Allied POWs on board.<\/p>\n

The Montevideo Maru was a Japanese war ship<\/a> that was fired upon by the American submarine USS Sturgeon and sank near the Philippines in 1942. At the time of its destruction, the ship was carrying 1,080 war prisoners from 14 Allied nations.<\/p>\n

The Sturgeon, unaware of the POWs on board, fired four torpedoes into the ship, destroying it in less than 10 minutes.\u00a0The Montevideo Maru did not display markings indicating that it was transporting POWs.<\/p>\n

Sydney-based nonprofit Silentworld Foundation found the wreck more than 13,000 feet below the surface of the South China Sea using an autonomous underwater vehicle.<\/p>\n

Approximately 979 of those killed were Australian<\/a> \u2014 the country’s single largest maritime loss of life in World War II.<\/p>\n

“The extraordinary effort behind this discovery speaks for the enduring truth of Australia\u2019s solemn national promise to always remember and honor those who served our country,” said Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese.<\/p>\n

Silentworld Foundation<\/a> said that \u2014 out of respect for the dead and their families \u2014 no actions will be taken to recover artifacts or human remains from the wreck site.<\/p>\n

“Families waited years for news of their missing loved ones, before learning of the tragic outcome of the sinking,” Silentworld director John Mullen said.\u00a0<\/p>\n

He added, “Some never fully came to accept that their loved ones were among the victims. Today, by finding the vessel, we hope to bring closure to the many families devastated by this terrible disaster.”<\/p>\n

The Montevideo Maru was destroyed on July 1, 1942, while transporting prisoners captured during the Battle of Rabaul in Papua New Guinea<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
