British woman swept away by wave while trying to rescue dogs is found dead in Tonga, brother says

A British woman who went missing after a huge undersea volcanic eruption rocked Tonga has been found dead, her family said, in the first reported fatality in the Pacific island nation.

The brother of Angela Glover, who ran an animal rescue center, said the 50-year-old died after being swept away by a wave. Nick Eleini said his sister's body had been found and that her husband James survived, the BBC reported.

"I understand that this terrible accident came about as they tried to rescue their dogs," Eleini said in a video statement posted by Sky News.
