Search Continues for Six Missing from Capsized Yacht

News summary

The search continues for six missing individuals, including British tech billionaire Mike Lynch, after the superyacht Bayesian sank off the coast of Sicily due to severe weather conditions. Experts suggest that air pockets may have formed within the yacht, potentially allowing for survival, although this remains speculative.

Meanwhile, one person has been confirmed dead, and fifteen were successfully rescued from the incident.
