US Navy ship to hand 40 migrants over to Italy
None
Italian news reports say a US Navy ship will offload the 40 migrants its crew rescued earlier this week onto an Italian coast guard vessel that will bring them to shore.
The arrangement reported Friday by the ANSA news agency would be in keeping with Italy's new migration policy to not allow foreign-flagged rescue vessels to dock in Italian ports.
The Trenton rescued the 40 migrants Tuesday. At least 12 other people died when their dinghy capsized.
