A British woman is among at least six people to have been killed in freak storms ripping through the French island of Corsica.
Around 2.30 pm on Thursday the maritime agency announced rescuers had found the body of an Englishwoman after her husband sounded the alarm.
She had disappeared during a kayak trip to the fishing village of Erbalunga, on Cap Corse on the north of the island, local media reports.
