Dozens killed as boat carrying migrants, refugees sinks off Italy

At least 58 people, including children, have died after a boat carrying migrants and refugees sank off the Italian coastal city of Crotone in the southern region of Calabria.

The vessel had set sail from Turkey several days ago with migrants from Afghanistan, Iran and several other countries, and crashed on Sunday in stormy weather near Steccato di Cutro, a seaside resort on the eastern coast of Calabria.

  1. Some 80 migrants have survived the shipwreck, according to the Italian coast guard, but authorities fear the death toll could climb as the boat was carrying some 200 people.
