Storm Sinks Tourist Boat in Vietnam’s Ha Long Bay
At least 18 people have died and many are missing after a tourist boat capsized on Saturday in Ha Long Bay, Vietnam. Ha Long Bay is a beautiful place known for its stunning limestone islands and is a UNESCO World Heritage Site 🌏.
The boat was carrying over 50 people, including families from Hanoi, the capital city of Vietnam. There were more than 20 children on board.
A sudden heavy rainstorm caused the boat to tip over 🌧️⛵. Border guards were able to rescue 12 people and recovered 18 bodies. Many people are still missing, and rescue teams are working hard to find them.
Our thoughts are with the families affected by this tragic accident ❤️.
