Fire er foreløbig døde i færge forlis

Fire rapporteres døde efter at færgen Mercraft 3 forliste i dag i Filippinerne, oplyser den filippinske kystvagt. Der var 251 mennesker ombord på færgen, der forliste i hårdt vejr 70 km øst for Manila, skriver nyhedsmediet Rappler.

Ialt er 166 passagerer reddet efter forliset i den igangværende redningsaktion.

”Vi har hørt, at der skulle være tilskadekomne, men arbejder fortsat på at få det bekræftet,” siger en talsmand for den filippinske kystvagt ifølge Rappler.

“Vi tror, at vejret i høj grad var skyld i ulykken,” tilføjer han. Da færgen forlod havnen i byen Real, ca. 70 km. øst for Manila, var der et stormvarsel for farvandene i nærheden, men ikke specifikt for skibets rute.

Kystvagten har indsat både helikoptere og skibe i eftersøgnings- og redningsaktionen.
