Around 140 people remain missing after a passenger ship carrying 243 people lost contact in Indonesia’s Java Sea.
So far, 103 people have been evacuated, while one person has been confirmed dead.
The Virgo Transport 8 departed Surabaya on Saturday bound for Banjarmasin, but contact with the vessel was lost early Sunday amid severe weather conditions.
Search and rescue teams have launched an operation involving ships and a helicopter as efforts continue to locate those still missing.
Authorities have yet to determine what happened to the vessel.
