At least 20 people have died in a boat accident in Uganda.


The police said that the boat was carrying 34 people and a lot of heavy goods when it crashed.


They also confirmed that nine of the people were rescued.


The statement issued by the police said that the plane was carrying loads of goods including bags of coal, fish and other food items.


They attributed the accident to carrying loads that were too heavy for the boat.


Boat accidents are not uncommon in Uganda.


In 2020, at least 26 people died in an accident in Lake Albert on the border of Uganda and the Republic of Congo.
