Cairo, Shawwal 8, 1436, Jul 24, 2015, SPA -- Rescuers Friday were searching for more victims in this week's Nile boat crash in Egypt as authorities put the death toll at 31, according to dpa. The Health Ministry said that two more bodies were recovered on Friday. State-run newspaper al-Ahram, citing an unnamed security official, said that the toll had climbed to 37. The pleasure boat was carrying picnickers late Wednesday when a barge hit it and caused it to sink off the district of al-Waraq in Giza near Cairo. --SPA 17:32 LOCAL TIME 14:32 GMT www.spa.gov.sa/w
