Angela Glover: British woman dies in Tonga tsunami after trying to save her dogs
Charity worker Angela Glover died trying to save her dogs from a tsunami that swept through the Pacific island of Tonga, her family have said.
Mrs Glover was separated from her husband, James, when a wave triggered by a volcanic eruption hit their coastal home in the low-lying Veitongo area.
Mr Glover was able to hold on to a tree but Ms Glover and their dogs were reportedly swept away.
Her brother, Nick Eleini, has now told The Independent that a body has been discovered in the search for the animal charity worker.
