The European Union (EU) has conveyed its deepest condolences to the families and friends of those killed or injured in the boat tragedy on the Karatoya River, reports UNB.

The US Embassy in Dhaka has also sent a condolence message.

"We offer our deepest condolences to the victims of the boat accident in the Karatoya River in Panchagarh, many of whom were returning from the Mahalaya celebration," said the Embassy in a message.

"We offer our heartfelt sympathies and prayers for the victims and their families," it added.
