Shipwreck off Mozambique kills more than 90. Most of the passengers were trying to flee the mainland due to false information about the ongoing cholera epidemic.
Several children are among the victims, according to Jaime Neto, secretary of state for the northern province of Nampula. Rescuers found five survivors and continued their search, but the sea state made operations difficult. Mozambiques has recorded nearly 15,000 cases of the disease transmitted by dirty water, and 32 people have died since October.
