New Facts: Coast Guard Recovers 35 Bodies From Ferry Fire
Firefighters entered the MV June Aster off Coron on Friday to search inside, after thick smoke and extreme heat had kept rescuers from boarding. Five people were confirmed dead and 43 had been pulled from the water as the interior search began.
Tallies of those still unaccounted for ranged from 84 to 86 on Friday. The ferry had 134 people aboard on the Manila to Coron run when the fire broke out Wednesday night.
The hulk was still smoking Friday morning, slowing work on board. The cause of the fire had not been determined.
