The whole article is badly written, but essentially a modern, very large ferry was hit by a freak wave, apparently. The cargo shifted. Thousands of tons of heavy trucks, heavy earth-moving machinery etc. People thought they were going to die, but somehow the ferry, at an angle of 40 degrees,…

At least this is more like a war, in that they are attempting to target their perceived 'enemy', and not just random members of the general public. Religion is not involved.
