(11 Jun 2019) Hungarian rescue officials continued their preparations on Tuesday morning to start the difficult process of raising a sunken tour boat from the floor of the Danube River.
Eight people are still missing from the May 29 collision between the Hableany (Mermaid) sightseeing boat and the Viking Sigyn river cruise ship at Budapest's Margit Bridge.
So far, 19 South Korean tourists and a Hungarian crewman are confirmed dead from the collision that occurred late at night and during stormy weather.
Only seven people were rescued.
A huge floating crane which arrived at the scene of the accident last week was being put in position for the procedure.
If all goes well, the wreck will be placed on a barge near the crane, from where it will be taken over by Budapest police investigating the collision.
Search and recovery efforts have been complicated by the Danube's high springtime water levels, its fast flow and near-zero underwater visibility.
