Two bodies have been found by divers searching for six missing people who were on the superyacht that sunk off the coast of Sicily, Italian media is reporting.
British tech billionaire Mike Lynch and his daughter are among those who remain unaccounted for after the Bayesian went down as a result of being hit by a tornado on Monday morning.
Twenty-two people were on board the vessel, 15 of whom were rescued – including Briton Charlotte Golunski and her one-year-old daughter Sofia.
The body of the yacht’s chef, Recaldo Thomas, has been recovered already, the Italian coastguard has confirmed to Sky News.
Divers have been looking for survivors in the hope that some might be trapped in air pockets inside the ship, but experts believe the chances any are left alive are slim.
