Az ehhez hasonló balesetek gyakoriak a térségben, a hajókat ugyanis túlterhelik, és figyelmen kívül hagyják a biztonsági előírások betartását.
A szudáni hatóságok tájékoztatása szerint ismeretlen okból felborult és elsüllyedt egy hajó a Kék-Níluson, amelynek fedélzetén 29 ember tartózkodott. A szerencsétlenség múlt hét pénteken történt Sennar tartomány délkeleti részén. A fedélzeten utazók mindegyike nő volt, közülük 23-an vízbe fulladtak, 5 utas pedig a kapitánnyal együtt életben maradt.
A nők alkalmi munkások voltak, akik a Souki régió farmjain dolgoztak, és éppen hazafelé tartottak, amikor hajójuk felborult. A SUNA állami hírügynökség szerint 13 holttestet találtak meg, további 10-et pedig a mentők még keresnek.
A Kék-Nílus Afrika fontos útvonala a közlekedés és áruszállítás szempontjából; a Fehér-Nílusba ömlik Szudán fővárosától északra, így létrehozva a Nílust, ami a világ egyik leghosszabb folyója.
A hasonló balesetek a túlterhelt hajók miatt nem ritkák a nemzet vízi útjain, ahol gyakran figyelmen kívül hagyják a biztonsági előírásokat. 2018-ban legalább 22 ember – 21 diák és 1 nő – veszítette életét, amikor egy hajó elsüllyedt a szudáni Níluson.
56 people were killed in Kreminna #Luhansk oblast - the occupiers shot from a tank home for the elderly. #Russians fired at it. Cynically and deliberately. They just adjusted the tank, put it in front of the house and started firing
