About 100 people feared dead in Papua New Guinea sinking - Ynetnews

About 100 people are feared trapped inside a ferry that sank in rough weather off Papua New Guinea with about 350 people on board on Thursday, a rescue official said.

Rescuers plucked 238 people from the sea off PNG's northeast coast after the MV Rabaul Queen was hit by three large waves and quickly sank, Rony Naigu, a rescue official from Papua New Guinea's maritime safety authority, said on Friday. (Reuters)
