Migrant boat carrying 760 reaches Italy from Libya
None
A boat carrying 760 people, most of them from sub-Saharan Africa, arrived on the southern Italian island of Lampedusa from Libya on Tuesday, authorities said, part of the North African immigration crisis.
The boatload was one of the largest to arrive in years on the tiny island, located roughly midway between Sicily and Tunisia, which has been at the centre of an immigration crisis triggered by the upheavals in North Africa. (Reuters)
