Lithuania’s Defense Ministry said on Monday that it had pulled a U.S. military vehicle out of a deep and muddy bog, nearly a week after the four American soldiers riding it went missing.

The vehicle was pulled out of the bog on Sunday night, the Defense Ministry said on social media. It did not provide an update on the missing soldiers.

To lift the vehicle out, U.S. Navy divers swam into the bog to attach two cables to the sunken vehicle, the U.S. Army said on social media. The divers had difficulty reaching the vehicle because of the dense mud, and rescue crews excavated and pumped water out of the bog, the army said.
