SEOUL, November 13 (AJP) - Another body was recovered early Thursday morning from the rubble of a thermal power plant in the southeastern city of Ulsan.

According to rescue workers, a man in his 30s was retrieved from the debris at the state-run utility Korea East-West Power at around 1:18 a.m.

This brings the death toll to six, with one person still missing.

The incident occurred when a 60-meter boiler tower suddenly fell during demolition work last Thursday, trapping seven of the nine workers at the site.
