<p>The body of an “irregular migrant” was found on the Bosnian side of the river, Serbia Interior Minister Ivica Dacic said in a statement.</p>
<p>He said that authorities believe that the man is the last missing person from Thursday’s tragedy.</p>

<p>The boat was carrying between 25 and 30 migrants when it overturned early Thursday on the Drina.</p>
<p>The bodies of 10 people, including a mother and her baby, were found in the river on Thursday, while police said that 18 people made it to land.</p>
<p>The victims include eight people from Syria, two from Egypt and one from Iraq, Mr Dacic said.</p>
<p>He said that Serbian police were working to identify and prosecute people smugglers who organised the illegal journey.</p>
<p>Vladan Rankic, who headed the search and rescue team, told The Associated Press that the crossings are very dangerous because of frequent changes in the Drina’s water levels because of the proximity of two hydropower plants.</p>
<p>“It is not safe to cross the river as was attempted yesterday and we all saw what happened,” he said.</p>
