UN says 31 migrants killed in attack off Yemen

A UN agency says at least 31 people have been killed in attack on a boat carrying Somali migrants off Yemen's Red Sea coast.

 

The International Organization for Migration's spokesman, Joel Millman, says the agency has learned that at least 80 survivors were taken to hospitals.

 

A rebel-run news agency in Yemen said earlier Friday that an airstrike in the Red Sea near a key strait of Bab al-Mandab in the Red Sea hit a boat carrying Somali refugees, killing and wounding dozens.
