Eighteen sailors are still missing from the doomed HTMS Sukhothai after the sixth day of search operations in the Gulf of Thailand, amid confusion over the number of bodies recovered and identified so far.
The navy said late Saturday that six more bodies had been recovered during the day, bringing the total to 11 since the search began. Of the 11, six have been positively identified as crewmen from the corvette that sank last Sunday. Identification is pending on the other five.
