Irish Sea Rescue Operation Continues

Rescuers searching for six people missing in the Irish Sea have recovered a body. 

A search operation was launched overnight, after the hull of a cargo vessel cracked and began to sink, 20 miles off the coast of north-west Wales. 

Eight crew members on board the ship went into the water.

Two were rescued early this morning and this afternoon the Coastguard has confirmed that the body of a man has been recovered. 

Five others remain missing. 

Coastguard helicopters from Dublin, Waterford and Sligo are assisting Holyhead Coastguard with the search operation. 

It’s understood the stormy conditions at sea are hampering their progress.
