The South Korean search team looking into the salvaged Sewol ferry found a total of 13 human bone fragments from the wreck of the ferry Tuesday.
According to the Ministry of Oceans and Fisheries, nine fragments were found inside a passenger cabin on the third deck of the ferry, while four others were later recovered from mud collected from the third and fourth deck.

The National Forensic Service examined the findings on site, but it could not confirm whether the bones belong to any of the eight missing victims.
The bones will be sent for DNA analysis, an official told reporters.
On Saturday, the team found 16 bone pieces on the fourth deck, later identified as the remains of Cho Eun-hwa, a student of Danwon High School.
The 6,800-ton Sewol ferry sank on April 16, 2014, in waters off the country’s southwest coast, claiming the lives of 304 people, who were mostly Danwon High students on a field trip.
