Aircraft have returned to the southeastern Bahamas to resume searching for a U.S. cargo ship with 33 people on board. The craft lost power and communications when it was caught in Hurricane Joaquin and has not been heard from since.

U.S. Coast Guard, Navy and Air Force planes and helicopters are expected to spend Sunday looking for the ship across a broad expanse of the Atlantic Ocean around Crooked Island, which the ship was passing when it was battered by fierce winds and waves by what was then a Category 4 hurricane.
