The death toll of South Korea’s capsized ferry has risen to 273, as divers searched the sunken ferry amid slower tidal currents. 31 passengers remain missing. No survivor had been reported since 172 people were saved from the ship on April 16th. South Korean officials said on Friday that four more bodies were recovered from the submerged hull overnight. Amid improved sea conditions, divers searched cabins on the fourth and fifth floors of the five-story vessel where the remaining bodies were believed to be trapped. On Friday, 128 divers continued to search inside the submerged ship.
Rescuers also found various passengers' belongings underwater after searching the 183 nearby islands. The ferry Sewol capsized and sank off the country’s southwestern coast 24 days ago. Two thirds of the 476 passengers were students and teachers from Danwon High School in Ansan, a city south of Seoul.
