(ANSAmed) - TUNIS, APRIL 13 - Boats from the Tunisian Coast
Guard and fishing boats on Monday morning rescued about 100
migrants on an Italy-bound, makeshift raft that had experienced
engine problems.
The migrants, of several different African nationalities,
had made numerous emergency calls once they had left from the
Libya coasts and were rescued and brought to the Tunisia port
Zarzis.
The news was reported by the local radio Shems FM, which
said that another SOS had been received but that the Coast Guard
had not yet been able to identify its location. (ANSAmed).
