Rage: South Korean Prime Minister Chung Hong-won (left, in glasses) is shielded by his bodyguards from a bottle of water thrown by an angry relative of passengers on the capsized ferry Sewol. Nearly 300 people remain unaccounted for
Stricken: The South Korean ferry Sewol is seen sinking at the sea off Jindo, as lighting flares are released for a night search

Rescue mission: Helicopters approach the ferry to help rescue the 476 passengers and crew after the vessel sank on on its way to Jeju island in South Korea
Drama: Members of the South Korea Coast Guard rescue passengers and crew as the ferry lists perilously to one side

A total of 16 helicopters, 34 rescue vessels and navy divers were sent to the area, a vice minister for South Korea's Public Administration and Security Ministry, told a news conference
Local media ran terrifying photos showing the partially submerged ferry tilting dramatically as helicopters flew overhead and rescue vessels floated nearby

Engulfed: Hundreds of passengers are still believed to be trapped inside the boat, most of which is now under water
Impact: Terrified passengers described hearing a 'loud noise' just after breakfast before it began to list dramatically
Rope: A South Korean Maritime Police boat pulls up along side the passenger ferry and to life people out of the surrounding water
Trapped: Passengers wait for help inside a cabin of the ship. Officials said 95 per cent of the vessel was submerged

Turning: Debris is scattered and left floating on the surface as the ferry's deck continues to be engulfed by water
Side: Rescue teams approach the sunken vessel in an attempt to pull passengers to safety and take them back to land
Bleak: The effort to find the 300 missing passengers is becoming more difficult as the ferry continues to sink
Containers spill out into the water as vessels join the rescue effort, which has been going on for several hours
Protection: A young girl is wrapped up in a blanket after being rescued by South Korean maritime policemen from the sinking vessel
Passengers in life jackets swim towards rescue boats as they are pulled from the ferry 15miles off the island of Byungpoong
A group of rescue boats and fishing vessels approach the sunken ferry as they try to rescue passengers who have been stuck on board for several hours
Warmth: Survivors are covered in blankets as they are taken off rescue vessels and led to safety on the shore. A total of 164 passengers have been accounted for so far
A passenger steps off the deck of the ferry, which is sloping perilously towards the sea, onto a rescue boat
Scramble: Maritime officers dressed in black climb up the side of the ship to reach passengers trapped on the ferry's deck
Retrieval: South Korean Coast Guard members hover over the submerged boat in a helicopter as trapped passengers grab onto rails and climb onto the outside of the ship
Pulled up: A passenger is lynched to safety by one of the helicopters scrambled to help with the rescue operation
