"Hard To Watch...": Bangladesh Ferry Crash Video Shocks Internet

The video has been taken by people in the nearby vessel. They are heard shouting in alarm as the cargo vessel collided with the ferry.

A video from Bangladesh is doing the rounds on social media which shows a large marine vessel pushing and drowning a small ferry in Bangladesh. At least half a dozen people are dead and more than 100 missing after the ferry packed with people collided with the cargo vessel on Sunday.

The incident took place between MV Ruposhi-9 inland cargo carrier and MV Afsaruddin on the Shitalakshya River near capital Dhaka.

The video shows the bigger vessel dragging the small ferry for a few metres before it tilts and finally goes completely under water. Some people are seen jumping off the ferry to save their lives.
