The body of Nir Dekel, who was lost at sea after a crane collapsed, trapping him beneath it, has been recovered.

Dekel was killed over a month ago, on March 13, during the course of his work for the Israel Electric Company at the Rottenburg power station.

"The Israel Electric Company and all its employees mourns the death of Nir Dekel and shares in the sorrow of his family," the company said in a statement. "The recovery of Nir's body closes a difficult chapter of uncertainty and emotional anguish and unrest for his family and for the company as well."
