The Eastern Star capsized last week in bad weather, killing1 more than 400 people onboard. It was pulled by a tugboat to calmer waters around 10 km upstream from its accident site. 

The Ministry2 of Transport says removing the ship from the edge of the main channel will also facilitate navigation on the Yangtze. 

Families of the victims have meanwhile begun collecting the personal belongings3 of their loved ones at a funeral parlor4 in Jianli County in central China's Hubei Province. 

Only 14 people survived the maritime5 disaster, with eight others still unaccounted for.
