[Regnum] The tourist ferry KM Barcelona VA with 280 passengers caught fire off the coast of Indonesia. This was reported on July 20 by the British newspaper The US Sun, citing the Manado search and rescue office.

"A massive fire broke out on an overcrowded ferry. Passengers were forced to jump overboard. Dozens of people were presumably trapped," the article said.

Panic ensued on board after thick smoke began billowing from the lower decks. Footage online showed passengers screaming and asking for help.

Some videos showed the ship's crowded deck, with crew members helping people fasten life jackets before jumping into the water. The cause of the fire has not yet been announced, and there are no reports of casualties.
