A 26-year-old Dutch tourist drowned and two other people were injured after a boat capsized during an excursion on the Brazilian side of Iguazu Falls. The boat was approaching the falls when the accident occurred; the causes are still under investigation. The incident serves as a reminder that water excursions in areas with high water levels can involve significant risks, especially after heavy rains or river flooding. It is advisable to check weather conditions, hire authorized operators, follow safety instructions, and always wear a life jacket.
