DISASTER NEWS: Just Now – Cruise Ship Capsizes, 100 Rescued So Far While Hundreds Still Missing
Tragedy struck at sea just moments ago as the Blue Horizon cruise ship capsized off the coast of Cebu, Philippines. The vessel, which was carrying more than 800 passengers and crew, overturned suddenly during heavy rains and turbulent waters.
Authorities have confirmed that at least 100 people have been rescued and are being treated for injuries, while hundreds more remain unaccounted for. Emergency services, including the Philippine Coast Guard and local fishing boats, are actively searching for survivors.
Eyewitnesses on nearby vessels reported seeing passengers jump into the water as the ship began to tilt dramatically. The cause of the capsizing is still unknown, but early speculation points to a possible mechanical failure combined with severe weather conditions.
Rescue efforts are ongoing, with helicopters, divers, and naval ships joining the operation. Families of those onboard are being urged to contact emergency hotlines for information.
