一艘渡轮于本周二在津巴布韦卡里巴湖沉没,船上人数存在数据差异。[1]警方称船上共有95人,其中包括90名乘客和5名船员,但根据售票记录,船上可能有多达114名成人,此外还可能有未计入票数的儿童。[1]这艘船在恶劣天气中翻覆,可能因巨浪击中而沉没。[1]
目前正在进行救援行动,但官方尚未公布具体的伤亡和获救人数。[1]议会议员穆茨·穆龙贝兹表示:"我们有很多严肃的问题需要诚实的答案。官方必须公布船上正确的人数。"[1]警方表示更多信息包括死亡人数和救出人数将适时公布。[1]
A passenger vessel capsized and sank in Lake Kariba on Tuesday, leaving multiple people missing and raising questions about the vessel's capacity and safety conditions.[1] Police reported that 95 people—comprising 90 passengers and 5 crew members—were aboard at the time of the incident, though ticketing records suggested the actual number of adults could have reached 114, with additional unregistered children potentially on board.[1] The lake, which straddles the border between Zimbabwe and Zambia, was experiencing severe weather conditions when the boat departed in the morning, and authorities believe rough waves may have caused the vessel to capsize.[1]
Rescue operations are underway as officials work to determine the full scope of the disaster.[1] The discrepancy between police figures and ticket sales has drawn scrutiny from lawmakers; Parliament member Mutsa Murombedzi stated: "We have very hard questions that require honest answers. The officials must release the correct number of people who were onboard."[1] Police indicated that further details, including death tolls and the number of survivors rescued, would be released in due course.[1]
