What originally seemed to be a successful rescue operation has taken a dramatic turn for the worse. To put it into perspective, the number of people who are now reportedly missing exceeds that of the still-missing Malaysia Airlines jet MH370, which had 239 passengers and crew on board.
Ship disasters tend to have more casualties than aerial ones, since they can carry a lot more people. Wonder what happened, the ship was not overloaded and the sky was clear....
Hopefully not many people lost but considering that the ship went down and there's still a few hundred unaccounted for...
