At least 10 survivors were located, among them five rescued on Friday, from under the rubble of a hotel crushed on Wednesday by an avalanche in central Italy, the authorities said.
Firefighters were able to pull out first a woman and her child, and then three children in late afternoon.
"It has been a very complicated day, yet also very positive," Fabrizio Curcio, chief of the Civil Protection Department coordinating rescue efforts, told a press conference.
"Five people are still to be pulled out, and this is a technically hard work," he added.
Overall, some 29 people including 22 guests and 7 employees were believed to have been inside the Rigopiano hotel, when the incident occurred in late afternoon on Wednesday.
