Indonesia locates sunken ferry

jakarta - Indonesian emergency services have located the sunken ferry on Lake Toba in North Sumatra. An official confirms that the ferry has been identified at the bottom with the help of equipment for soil investigation.

The spring lies at a depth of 450 meters, not far from where the boat sank, reports the director of the company involved in the soil investigation. Due to the depth, divers can not be used. Underwater drones are needed to be able to establish the findings with certainty.

Since the crowded ferry sank last Monday, at least 190 people are missing. Three bodies were salvaged. Eighteen people survived the disaster, including the captain. Lake Toba is the largest volcanic lake in the world.
