Rescue workers scour Danube River in downtown Budapest for 21 people missing after sightseeing boat carrying South Korean tourists sank, killing at least seven.
Rescue workers scoured the Danube River in downtown Budapest Thursday for 21 people missing after a sightseeing boat carrying South Korean tourists sank in a matter of seconds after colliding with a larger cruise ship during an evening downpour.
The sunken boat was located early Thursday near the Margit Bridge, not far from the neo-Gothic Parliament building on the riverbank. Dozens of rescue personnel, including from the military and divers, were involved in the search. Employees from the South Korean Embassy in Budapest were assisting Hungarian officials in identifying those rescued and the deceased.
The Very Good Tour agency said the tourists left South Korea on May 25 and were supposed to return June 1.
