At least 113 people are missing at sea
after a migrant boat wreck off the coast of Libya, International
Organization for Migration spokesperson Flavio Di Giacomo said
Monday.
Di Giacomo said rescue operations conducted by the Libyan
coast guard with the help of some fishers managed to save just
six men and a woman.
According to the survivors, there were 120 people on board,
including 30 women and nine children.
The disaster comes after another 80 people died when a dinghy
carrying asylum-seekers overturned off the coast of Libya after
taking on water two days ago, according to testimony survivors
gave Sicilian prosecutors after being taken to Pozzallo by a
Danish cargo ship.
