More than 129 people are still missing after a ship capsized off Indonesia, according to officials. The incident occurred in the early hours of the morning, when heavy weather conditions led to the vessel losing stability. The ship, carrying around 200 passengers and crew, was en route to a nearby island when it overturned.
Emergency services have deployed over 600 rescuers to the area, working against the challenging weather. The search operation is ongoing, with teams using boats and helicopters to scan the waters. Local authorities have confirmed that the number of missing people is still unknown, as some individuals may have been rescued but not yet accounted for.
The region has experienced frequent storms during this time of year, making rescue operations particularly difficult. Officials have urged patience as the search continues, emphasizing the need for coordination between local and national agencies. No official confirmation of casualties has been released yet.
