Ferry capsizing off Guyana kills 72; around 100 feared dead

The confirmed death toll from a state ferry capsizing off Guyana's coast has risen to 72, with a multinational team still working to salvage the partially submerged vessel and recover bodies. Of an estimated 179 people on board, 76 were rescued. The government believes up to 100 may have died, which would make this the worst maritime disaster in Guyanese history.
