Officials in Bangladesh say at least 15 people were killed on Monday when a ferry packed with people sank after colliding with another boat on a river near Dhaka.
Authorities say at least 15 people are missing, and the rest swam to safety.
The ferry was carrying at least 70 people on their way home for a Muslim festival, Eid al-Fitr. The vessel sank in the Meghna River southeast of the capital.
Ferry accidents, often blamed on lax rules and unsafe navigation, are common in Bangladesh.
Zahurul Alam has more on the story.
