A boat packed full of British tourists capsized during a catastrophic storm over Italy's Lake Maggiore yesterday.
Local reports say the vessel, believed to be a houseboat, capsized after a "whirlwind" struck the lake - a popular destination for British holidaymakers on Italy's border with Switzerland.
According to weather data from the day of the sinking, massive thunderstorms were seen surrounding the huge 212 sq km (132 sq miles) lake in northern Italy.
