More than 90 dead in ship accident in Mozambique. They wanted to escape a possible cholera epidemic and drowned when their overcrowded fishing boat was shipwrecked.

It may have been hit by high waves. The boat, which was actually only intended for fishing, could accommodate a maximum of 100 people. However, there were around 130 people on board. “The ship was not intended to transport people,” the official said. The AIM news agency reported, citing a representative of the maritime authority, that the ship was probably wrecked when it was hit byhigh waves.
