Five bodies found in wreck of Sicily superyacht

Five bodies have been recovered from the wreck of a luxury yacht, which sank off Sicily in a storm. A fifth has been located. Divers had been trying to access the cabins since Monday morning to find six missing people.

They include the British tech tycoon Mike Lynch, who’d been celebrating his recent acquittal in a long-running US fraud case, his daughter Hannah and Morgan Stanley International chair Jonathan Blumer. The body of a chef had already been recovered. 15 others were rescued.
