At least six people have died and one is missing after a boat collided with another vessel and sank on Lake Titicaca, Bolivian police have said.
The two boats, carrying a total of 48 people, hit one another in the dark on Tuesday evening, police said.
The accident, which happened in an area known as the Strait of Tiquina, split one of them in half, officials said.
One of the vessels was reported to be carrying Brazilian nationals, although all the dead are said to be Bolivian.
The victims were travelling on board a boat called the Cisne, which split in two after being in a collision with another vessel, the Mercurio, a police spokesman said.
The collision happened at around 1930 (2330 GMT) on Tuesday, when it was already dark.
