Iran extends condolences to Bangladesh

Tehran, IRNA – Iranian Foreign Ministry Spokesman Nasser Kanaani has expressed condolences to Bangladesh over the boat tragedy.

On Tuesday, Kanaani expressed sympathy with the people and government as well as families of victims of a boat capsize in Bangladesh.

The boat carrying tens of Hindu devotees capsized in northern Bangladesh.

The small boat packed with mostly women and children on their way to a popular temple flipped over in the Karatoya river on Sunday as onlookers screamed in horror from the shore near Boda town in the northern Panchagarh district.

Such horror tragedies of sinking boats in rivers of Asian countries have turned into common accidents, which happen because of poverty and people’s refusal to respect safety measures.

In June last year, at least 32 people lost their lives as a result of a colliding of two boats in Bangladesh.
