The bodies of three of four missing seafarers have been found following the fire that devastated the Maersk Honam 340 miles off India's Lakshadweep Islands last week.
Maersk Line said it made the announcement "with deep sadness" that human remains had been found on the 15,262-teu ship.
"At this point in time our three colleagues are unidentified", it added.
"Given the time passed and the severe fire damages of the vessel we must conclude by now that we have lost all four colleagues who have been missing since the fire onboard Maersk Honam which began on 6 March," the company said.
