London - All the bodies which were removed from the bombed London Underground trains and a double-decker bus and taken to a makeshift mortuary have been identified, a coroner said on Monday.

"Shortly after midday on Sunday July 17, the 55 bodies in the Resilience Mortuary had been identified," said the coroner, Doctor Paul Knapman.

"Inquests into most have already been opened and adjourned at either Westminster Coroner's Court or St Pancras Coroner's Court," he said in a statement.

Police said earlier that the number of confirmed dead in the July 7 bombings in London rose to 56 on Monday, having reported that two of them had died in the hospital of their injuries.

It was not clear if the toll would now climb to 57 dead.
