A rescue diver died while searching for the bodies of four Italians who died in a scuba diving accident in the Maldives.
Staff Sergeant Mohamed Mahdhee was taken to hospital in critical condition after diving as part of the search and rescue operation, and later succumbed to his injuries, a government spokesman told the BBC on Saturday.
The accident saw five Italians die while attempting to explore caves at a depth of around 50m (164ft).
So far, just one of their bodies is thought to have been recovered, in a cave at a depth of around 60m (197ft).
