"Baltimore Key Bridge Collapse: Recovery Efforts Continue as 6 Presumed Dead"

TL;DR Summary
Two bodies of the six missing construction workers from the Francis Scott Key Bridge collapse in Baltimore were recovered, with four still missing. The workers, hailing from Latin American countries, were presumed dead after a cargo ship struck the bridge, causing it to collapse into the Patapsco River. Efforts have transitioned from rescue to salvage, with hazardous materials on the ship posing no threat. The bridge's satisfactory condition and the ship's loss of power are under investigation, while the closure of the Port of Baltimore has prompted a senator to draft an emergency bill to aid affected workers.
