As many as 200 people have died after an overloaded ferry sank off the Tanzanian island of Zanzibar.
The MV Spice Islanders was sailing between the islands of Unguja and Pemba, ferrying people back from holiday at the end of Ramadan.
It capsized in an area of deep seas, heavy winds and strong currents.
Tanzanian emergency services say that 325 passengers survived the tragedy.
The vessel, built in 1967, was crammed with people and many refused to board the ship at the mainland port of Dar es Salam.
