The operation to salvage the Costa Concordia cruise ship off the coast of Tuscany has been completed.

The head of the civil protection agency which oversaw the project says the wreck is now upright.

It's the biggest ever salvage operation of a passenger ship.      

The Concordia has lain half-submerged off the island of Giglio since it ran aground and sank in January 2012 with the loss of 32 lives.

Engineers will wait until the Spring before towing the ship away.
