Russian mine disaster death toll rises to 110

Searchers today found the bodies of two victims missing after a methane blast last month at a Siberian coal mine, bringing the death toll in Russia’s worst mine disaster in more than a decade to 110, an official said.

The bodies were recovered from the Ulyanovskaya mine in the Kemerovo region, said Marina Chalabko, chief spokeswoman for Yuzhkuzbassugol, the company that operates the mine. No more people are missing, she said.
