BBC 27 FEB 2023
At least 60 migrants have been killed after the vessel carrying them sunk off the coast of Italy.
The Italian coast guard spotted about 30 bodies after a migrant boat broke apart in rough seas off the southern coast of Italy's mainland, state radio reported this morning.
Quoting unidentified port authorities near the coastal town of Crotone, in Calabria, the toe of the Italian peninsula, RAI said the fishing boat was carrying around 250 migrants when it ran into trouble at dawn Sunday.
Local media reported that the search for survivors continues, but around 80 have been recovered so far, according to the coastguard.
The death roll rose from 27 to 60 in a matter of hours as the coastguard scoured the waves for corpses.
