At least 33 dead after Philippine ferry capsizes
At least 33 people were killed after a passenger ferry with 173 on board capsized in rough waters in the central Philippines on Thursday, a disaster monitoring official said.
At least seven rescue boats picked dozens of survivors who clung to the overturned hull of the Kim Nirvana, one kilometre (about half a mile) from Ormoc port, Ciriaco Tolibao from the city's disaster risk reduction and management office told AFP.
