Summary
Sixty-nine people aboard the MV Barima have been rescued since the vessel flipped over on Saturday night, Phillips told reporters, adding that 83 more remained missing. “Our focus again is on finding people,” he said, having raised the death toll from a previous 10. “We still have hope.” The ageing ferry was traveling from the capital Georgetown to Guyana’s inland Essequibo region when it overturned. Authorities earlier Monday expanded the size of the area being searched from 400 to 1,070 sq km, while local fishermen joined recovery efforts. The French army also sent 12 divers, two doctors and a mechanic from nearby French Guiana to aid the search-and-rescue operation, the presidency said.
Furthermore, The ferry was built in 1939, according to the shipping website VesselFinder. Guyana, a small English-speaking country at the northeast corner of South America, is locked in a territorial dispute with neighbouring Venezuela over the oil-rich Essequibo region. Boats typically travel by sea before reaching a river to arrive at Port Kaituma, which is located in the depths of a dense rainforest.
In addition, The ship began its journey in mid-afternoon and a distress call was received about eight hours later, Edghill earlier said. Two crewmembers aboard the aging ferry tested positive for marijuana after the incident, Phillips had told reporters Sunday, adding that an investigation was underway. Phillips said he was now “confident” that 179 people were aboard, following uncertainty about the numbers involved in the disaster.
Moreover, The search for survivors is ongoing after the MV Barima flipped over late Saturday.
