Giglio, Italy (CNN) -- Rescue workers -- who had suspended their underwater search of the Costa Concordia after the cruise ship moved, making it too risky for divers to operate -- resumed searching Friday night on the upper part of the ship, the Italian coast guard said. Rescue workers previously suspended their search when sensors on board the vessel measured movement, Massimo Maccheroni, of the Coast Guard general command, told CNN. "When this happens all rescue forces have to leave the ship, (so as) not to put their lives in danger," he said. Underwater searches will not resume until Saturday, the Italian coast guard said.

Until now we only have one fact: the fact that the ship @placeholder hit a rock.
