Death toll rises after ferry capsizes in Zimbabwe lake

But police did not update how many people were injured or still missing after Tuesday's disaster involving a ferry operated by a government agency.

The ferry capsized while carrying at least 114 adult passengers and five crew members, according to Zimbabwe's disaster management agency.

It was not clear how many people were on the ferry because the figures only included those who bought tickets, and children below ticketing age could have been on board.

The ferry had a carrying capacity of 90 people, according to authorities.

It is used to take people from rural communities around the lake to the town of Kariba on its shore.
