At least five people have died and 284 rescued from a ferry fire off the coast of Indonesia’s Sulwesi island.

The Indonesian Navy said everyone onboard the KM III Barcelona has been removed from the ship.

Passengers were seen diving into the water with lifejackets to escape the flames, before the blaze was extinguished.

The Indonesian Navy, the Maritime Security Agency (Bakamla), and local search and rescue teams were deployed in the joint rescue effort.

The cause of the fire remains unknown.
