Rescue workers searched the stormy waters off Lebanon on Friday after a cargo ship sank, killing at least nine crew members and leaving dozens missing.
The Panamanian-flagged cargo ship carrying thousands of sheep and other livestock went down Thursday in heavy rain.
A senior Lebanese army officer said 35 people were still missing. Of the 83 crew members on board, 39 were rescued and nine bodies were recovered, the officer said on condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to speak to media.
