At least 14 children were killed when a packed ferry that was taking them home from school sank in Cambodia's Mekong river, authorities have confirmed.
The accident occurred around 7pm local time on Thursday along the Mekong river southeast of the capital, Phnom Penh, police said.
All the victims were aged 11 to 14 years and none of them had lifejackets, but two students and two adult boat operators survived the tragedy.
