Guyana's Deadliest Maritime Tragedy | Guyana News

from Guyana News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

One hundred and three confirmed dead after the MV Barima capsizing—Guyana’s deadliest maritime disaster—sparks outrage and demands for accountability, with calls for Minister Juan Edghill’s resignation. Search efforts, now involving 16 vessels and expanded search zones, have recovered 22 more bodies on day three, leaving 76 survivors. The government has placed the vessel’s management team on administrative leave while launching a probe into systemic failures. Prime Minister dismisses resignation calls as “noise,” insisting focus remains on rescue and recovery. French, local, and international divers work to retrieve one trapped body, while national mourning begins and an official inquiry prepares to examine leadership lapses to prevent future tragedies.
