Not much to do unfortunately.
Mark it as lost and lock it so it cannot be restored and used.
You can also set it to be erasded if it ever comes back online. Do not remove it from your account for any reason.

Beware any messages you get from "Apple" or the "Police" claiming that they have found your iPhone – or asking you to click on a link and enter your Apple ID and password to see its location.
These are not from Apple or the police, but from thieves, fences, and the like who want to clear the Activation Lock on your phone, get into your data on iCloud, etc.
