The reporting

A neutral summary of the key facts most outlets agree on, drawn from reporting across the political spectrum.

Vietnamese police detained speedboat captain Nguyen Hong Hai, 57, on Sunday after his vessel capsized off southern Vietnam, killing 15 Indian tourists. The boat was carrying 32 Indian tourists and four Vietnamese crew members back from an island trip on Saturday when it overturned about 400 meters from Hon May Rut Ngoai island. Authorities opened a criminal investigation into alleged violations of waterway transport safety regulations as regional officials cited rough sea conditions. The remaining passengers and crew were rescued after people aboard shouted for help close to shore.
