Rome: Rescuers on Friday found the body of the last worker missing after a blast at a hydroelectric plant in Italy, bringing the final death toll to seven.
Fire spokesman Luca Cari confirmed to AFP that all the workers missing after Tuesday's explosion had now been found. Three bodies had been recovered on Thursday.
The cause of the blast at Enel Green Power's (EGP) Bargi plant on Lake Suviana near Bologna remains unclear.
EGP's chief executive, Salvatore Bernabei, said in an interviews published Friday that any speculation was "premature", saying it would take time to understand a "very complex" situation.
But he rejected any suggestion there had been safety issues at the plant.
