A tourist speedboat carrying 36 people, including 32 Indian tourists, capsized off Vietnam’s Phu Quoc Island, killing 15 Indians and leaving several others injured. The vessel overturned while travelling from Hon May Rut Island to An Thoi Port, triggering a massive rescue operation involving tourist boats and the coast guard on July 11. According to local authorities, 21 people were rescued, with two reported to be in critical condition. The Indian Embassy in Vietnam has released the names of all 32 Indian tourists, while the Consulate General of India in Ho Chi Minh City has set up a control room and issued helpline numbers for affected families. Prime Minister Narendra Modi has expressed condolences and assured all possible assistance. Vietnamese authorities have launched an investigation, with heavy winds and rough seas believed to have contributed to the accident.
