Posted On 22 Jan 2012
Italian search a rescue teams have gone back to work in their search for 20 people still missing from the shipwreck Costa Concordia, after briefly halting their efforts when the ship started to slip on rocks off the Tuscan Coast.
Divers renewed searching the above-water section of the ship on Sunday, but the agitated waters kept rescuers from investigating the submerged part. The underwater exploration was halted last Friday because the cruise was slipping on rocks.
This Sunday, the rescue divers announced that they found the body of a woman wearing a life vest in a narrow underwater corridor of the capsized ship, the corpse of woman was discovered in the bridge #7 of the ship. This raises the death toll to 13 victims. (AV)
