Hungary boat capsize: Seven South Koreans die on Danube

Seven South Korean tourists have died and at least 19 more are missing after a boat capsized on the Danube river in Hungary's capital, Budapest.

Thirty tourists and three tour guides, as well two Hungarian crew members, were on the boat when it was hit by another vessel while moored.

The incident occurred at about 22:00 local time (20:00 GMT) on Wednesday.

Seven people have been rescued, and a massive search operation is continuing on a river swollen by heavy rainfall.
