(UTV|COLOMBO) – Six rescue divers have drowned while trying to save a teenager from a disused mining pool in Malaysia.
They were searching for a seventeen-year-old boy who is thought to have fallen into the body of water while fishing with his friends on Wednesday (03).
Authorities said the divers became caught in a “Whirlpool” and sudden strong currents caused some of their equipment to come off.
The search for the missing boy resumed on Thursday (05).
