A boat carrying almost 100 migrants capsized on Wednesday off the Italian island of Lampedusa, killing at least 20 and leaving many missing, the UN refugee agency said.
Some 60 survivors have been brought to a centre in Lampedusa, said a UNHCR spokesman in Italy. According to accounts of those who survived the shipwreck, there had been between 92 and 97 migrants on board when the boat departed from Libya.
