Missing ferry had a hundred people on board

The ferry that disappeared in the island state of Kiribati probably did not have fifty but a hundred passengers on board.

The boat departed from the island of Nonouti on the 18th of January to the 260 kilometers north of Betio, where the vessel had to berth two days later. That never happened.

On Sunday, another seven survivors were rescued from the suspected shipping disaster after being seen by the crew of a New Zealand Air Force aircraft.
