Boat accident: Pak Army continues operation to rescue 21 missing people

HARIPUR (DNA) – The soldiers of Pakistan Army have continued operation on Thursday to recue remaining 21 people who went missing after overloaded boat capsized in Tarbela Lake.

According to details, the officers have found bodies of only three children while 11 people have been rescued so far.

However, it seems that the hope for the survival of other 21 people is fading as the soldiers are facing problems in finding any one due to the wild waves in the lake.

Inter-Services Public Relation (ISPR) told that assistance of Special Service Group (SSG) sea divers is being taken on the request of civil administration.

Dunya News has obtained the video captured from a mobile phone ahead of the incident. The video revealed that the mishap took place due to the fight between two out of eight cows travelling in the boat.

The passenger, who went live on facebook, asked the people to recite Kalma and pray for the survival as the boat lost its balance.
