Five dead and 86 missing as fire breaks out on ferry in the Philippines
At least five people have died and 86 are missing after a fire broke out on a ferry in the Philippines, the country's coastguard said. The blaze, which erupted at 18:45 local time (10:45 GMT) Wednesday, was still burning as of 11:00 on Thursday. The strong currents and thick smoke were a challenge to those working to extinguish it, the coastguard said. A survivor said he floated in the sea for two hours before he got rescued. If the rescue had been delayed, I would definitely have died," Roland Lerma told the BBC.
