By Aradhana Aravindan SINGAPORE (Reuters) - The U.S. Navy on Thursday suspended wider search and rescue operations for sailors missing after the warship USS John S. McCain collided with a merchant vessel in waters near Singapore and Malaysia earlier this week. A statement on the U.S. Seventh Fleet's website confirmed the identities of one sailor killed and of nine sailors still missing following the collision. U.S. Navy and Marine Corps divers will continue search-and-recovery efforts inside flooded sailors, the statement said.
