Ten people died after four tourist boats capsized during sudden strong winds in southwestern China, according to state media reports on Monday. The incident, which occurred in Guizhou province on Sunday afternoon, plunged 84 people into the water.
Rescue efforts led to the successful recovery of 74 individuals, while nearly 500 emergency personnel were deployed to assist in the operation, Xinhua News Agency reported. Of those rescued, 70 were taken to hospital with non-life-threatening injuries.
