Rescuers were desperately searching for five people still missing on Sunday (Jul 20) after 37 were killed when a boat capsized in one of Vietnam’s most popular tourist destinations.
The tourist boat ferrying families around Vietnam’s famed Ha Long Bay was lashed by a storm on Saturday in one of the UNESCO World Heritage site’s deadliest disasters.
The “Wonder Sea” vessel was carrying 48 passengers and five crew members when it capsized because of sudden heavy rain, the VNExpress news site said.
