MOSCOW - The bodies of 33 people killed in Wednesday's explosion at the Zasyadko coal mine in Donetsk were brought to the surface, Donetsk Regional Administration said on Twitter.
It said that the mine had been repaired and “has gone over to the technical regime of operation.”
Reports earlier on Thursday had said eight dead bodies had been brought to the surface, that 32 miners had been confirmed dead, and that one more worker was missing and being looked for.
There were 230 workers inside the mine when it was rocked by a methane explosion at 5.20 a.m. on March 4.
