A Chinese salvage team has recovered two more bodies from a stricken Iranian oil tanker in East China Sea, with the death toll now at 3.

Four members of the team wore respirators to board the Sanchi, which remains on fire a week after it collided with another ship east of Shanghai. They found two bodies and recovered the ship's black box. However, they were driven back by the high temperatures when they tried to enter the living quarters of the ship. There are still 29 crew members missing.
