🚨 GİRNE–TASUCU FERRY DISASTER | FULL CHRONOLOGY AND ALL RAW FOOTAGES ⛴️ 🌊
A passenger ferry capsized and sank off Northern Cyprus on Sunday, 30 August 2026. Here is the sequence of events as reported by officials.
The privately operated high-speed catamaran Filo Jet (Filo Denizcilik, Turkish-flagged, ~40 m) had been scheduled to sail from Kyrenia (Girne) to Taşucu, Mersin, on Saturday but was delayed by poor weather. It departed Girne harbour at approximately 11:58–12:30 local time carrying 259 passengers and 8 crew (267 people in total). Most passengers were Turkish citizens.
About 15 minutes after departure, roughly 4 nautical miles (7.5 km) offshore near Diana Beach, the vessel was struck by successive waves, began taking on water through the bow area, and capsized. Survivors later described water entering rapidly and some jumping into the sea. A distress call was issued.
Coast Guard boats, helicopters, the passenger vessel Akgünler 3, civilian craft and later Turkish assets launched an immediate rescue. Passengers in life jackets clung to the overturned hull or floated nearby. By late afternoon the wreck had fully sunk to a depth of 514 metres. Turkish divers were requested to assist the search.
Casualty figures were updated throughout the day. Officials ultimately reported 8 dead, approximately 237–242 rescued (some treated in hospital), and 17–19 still missing as night operations continued with helicopters, drones and additional vessels. None of the rescued were described as critically injured in later briefings.
The captain and seven crew members were detained for questioning. TRNC authorities declared three days of national mourning and cancelled 30 August Victory Day events. Search-and-rescue operations were stated to continue without interruption.
Investigation into weather, vessel condition and operational decisions is ongoing.

A horrific scene of severe flooding at the Rasuwagadhi border point on the Nepal-Tibet border.
The strong currents wreaked havoc across the area, leaving 400 pilgrims and 105 Indian tourists also missing in the Nepal floods.

@foolmealex Its not what you are it’s who you are. Well, not you specifically but black culture in general. Nobody really gives a shit about your skin tone. Black is what you are. Who you are as a people is a different story. Definitely don’t want to live in your communities.
@LesterRemhof@Formalito_el We ARE blind to a whole shit ton of the spectrum.Imagine if you could see radio waves. There would be shit coming at you from every direction.
@Pukuy155123@shellshockkk Because black culture is violent and corrupt. You are an idiot and we dont give a fuck about you either so stay out of my neighborhood.
