Divers have located a sixth body after the sinking of a luxury yacht off Sicily, believed to be that of 18-year-old Hannah Lynch, according to reports in Italian media.
Hannah is the last of those missing following the sinking earlier this week.
The body of her father, tech entrepreneur Mike Lynch, and five others have already been brought to shore following the sinking of the luxury yacht Bayesian, which foundered during a freak storm off the Italian fishing village of Porticello, east of Palermo.
Of the 22 passengers and crew on board, 15 people survived the sinking, including a one-year-old child and Hannah’s mother, Angela Bacares.
Morgan Stanley International bank chairman Jonathan Bloomer, his wife Judy Bloomer, Clifford Chance lawyer Chris Morvillo, his wife Neda Morvillo and the boat's chef Recaldo Thomas were the others lost when the Bayesian sank.
The wreck of the Bayesian is on the seabed at a depth of 50 metres (164ft).
Rescuers described the operation, which has been ongoing since Monday, as "complex", with divers limited to 12-minute underwater shifts.
A decision on whether to raise the sunken yacht from the seabed is "not on the agenda" but will be in the future, a spokesperson from the Italian Coastguard has said.
The ship was "practically intact" on the seabed, according to divers on the search and rescue team.
