Divers recover final body from yacht shipwreck in Italy
Divers and rescue workers bring ashore the final missing body after the sinking of a superyacht early on Monday.
The British-flagged luxury yacht The Bayesian capsized in a storm off the coast of southern Sicily with 22 people aboard, sparking a days-long rescue and recovery effort.
The daughter of UK tycoon Mike Lynch was the only body still unaccounted for.
It brings the death toll from the incident to seven.
Many questions remain about why the yacht sank, and so quickly, when other boats nearby were unaffected.
Italian prosecutors have opened a probe and will hold a press conference on Saturday.
