Hungarian police confirm the discovery of two more victims of a sightseeing boat's collision with a river cruise ship in Budapest
Rescuers in inflatable boats transport what appear to be bodies of victims, near the Margaret Bridge where a sightseeing boat capsized in the Danube river in Budapest, Hungary, Monday, June 3, 2019.
The Hableany carried 33 South Korean passengers and two crew members when it was struck by the larger cruise ship, near the Hungarian Parliament building in Budapest. Police said a ninth body, belonging to a male, was located Monday night downstream at the village of Harta, 110 kilometres by road from Budapest. The victim's nationality was not revealed.
Despite a few test dives last week, the Danube's fast flow, its high springtime water levels and near zero visibility under water have prevented divers from reaching the sunken boat. A huge floating crane that can lift 200 tons is expected to be at the scene within days. Hungarian state television reported the crane was stranded roughly 120 kilometres upriver, unable to pass under bridges on the way to Budapest because of the Danube's high water levels.
