A ferry capsizes on Zimbabwe’s Lake Kariba, with authorities reporting at least 15 deaths and 27 people still missing. Multiple outlets cite Zimbabwe’s disaster management officials as the source of the casualty figures.
Reports say the ferry is overloaded and that the incident occurs on Tuesday. PBS NewsHour and other coverage add that 77 people are rescued and reach a small island on the lake. Boats are dispatched to bring survivors back, according to PBS NewsHour. Across outlets, the main differences are limited to wording and emphasis—some focus primarily on the death and missing toll, while others specifically highlight alleged overloading and the rescue to the island—rather than on new or conflicting details about the event itself.
