A vessel on Zimbabwe's Lake Kariba, reportedly carrying 95 individuals, has overturned following impact from strong waves. The incident occurred on the vast artificial lake, a significant waterway shared by Zimbabwe and Zambia.
Emergency services have commenced a recovery operation. Initial reports from local officials suggest the boat encountered severe weather conditions on the lake, leading to the capsizing event.
