Rescue teams to try entering sleeping cabin of sunken Sicily yacht | BBC News

The search for six people who are missing after a yacht sunk off the coast of Sicily in the early hours of Monday is now in its third day.

Rescue teams are expected to attempt to enter the sleeping cabin of the ship on Wednesday, after being hampered by debris blocking access.

Divers are being helped by remote controlled vehicles that can operate on the seabed for far longer than the rescuers themselves.

Among the missing are British tech tycoon Mike Lynch and his 18-year-old daughter Hannah.

Four others are missing: Morgan Stanley International chairman Jonathan Bloomer, his wife Judy Bloomer, lawyer Chris Morvillo and his wife Neda.
