Heavy incidents in Turkey sink a 148 passenger ship with a view when tourists were thrown into the sea to save

“Big Boss Diamond”, a tourist ship known for vacationers' theme, was on a daily trip near Paradise Island and Akvaryum Bay when the serious incident occurred.

According to initial reports, dozens of passengers panicked and began to jump into the sea to save themselves, while there were also about 20 children on board. Videos that circulate in social media capture dramatic moments, with a ship that gets a dangerous animation before it completely sinks.

A major rescue operation was launched immediately, including rescue services and private ships in the area. Turkish authorities announced that all passengers were safely evacuated and brought to shore without victims or serious injuries.

A statement by the Muglas government said the “sekies that arrived at the scene co-ordinated the evacuation of citizens with the help of nearby ships near”, noting that no health problems were found among the survivors.

Causes of shipwreck remain under investigation. However, some passengers claim that a fire in the boat's engine preceded this, which allegedly caused the ship's approach and shipwreck.

I'm glad I got out of there and I'm alive”
