A boat carrying about 200 suspected African migrants have sunk off the coast of Libya. Libyan authorities have recovered at least 20 bodies off the coast of Tripoli, after a boat carrying the migrants suspected to be from sub-Saharan Africa went missing at sea.
"We found 16 individuals alive, the rest are lost. We are investigating the rest. There were 20 bodies, found dead in the water," Abdel Latif Mohamed Ibrahim, a member of the Libyan coast guard, said early on Saturday following the Friday incident.
