The search resumed for the bodies of 23 workers still missing after 13 died when a wall of water flooded into a giant dry dock, Dubai Drydocks said.  

 

"The search effort resumed at eight this morning," (0400 GMT Thursday), a company employee told AFP about 24 hours after the dock gate ruptured.  

 

Frogmen had fished out 13 corpses by nightfall Wednesday, police said, reporting another 23 men injured. (Albawaba.com)
