Rescuers searching for six Russian seamen missing after a cargo vessel sank off north Wales have recovered a body of crew member. Five crew from the 81-metre Swanland are still missing, reports the BBC.
Two people were earlier rescued from the water by an RAF crew. The crew of 'Swanland' had sent out a distress call reporting that the hull was thought to have cracked and the ship was taking on water. 'Swanland', laden with 3,000 tons of limestone loaded at the Llanddulas jetty near Abergele, was en route to Cowes on the Isle of Wight.
Holyhead coastguard said weather and sea conditions were difficult, with gale force eight winds.
