About 120 people are missing, presumed dead after a ferry capsized in the west African nation of Ghana. The ferry packed with people and their belongings capsized on Ghana's Lake Volta when it hit a tree stump. Local media reports indicate that the people were being moved from an area where they had settled illegally. Reports say the boat was designed for only 70 people but was carrying about 150 when it sank. Thirty people have been rescued. It is the third major maritime disaster in Africa in recent weeks. At least 109 people died when a boat sank in the Red Sea off Djibouti last week, and an estimated 127 people drowned when a boat broke up and sank off Cameroon last month.
