Two US service members have gone missing during military exercises in Morocco, the US African Command (Africom) said on Sunday.

The missing Americans were participating in African Lion 2026, an annual joint exercise designed to strengthen operations between US forces, Nato allies, and African nations.

They were reported missing on Saturday near the Cap Draa Training Area, which is near the city of Tan Tan in Morocco, Africom said.

A search and rescue mission involving ground, air, and maritime resources from the US, Morocco and other countries is underway for the service members, officials said.
