A rescue plane has located what could be one of the boats that has been missing for over two weeks with around 300 people on.
A boat with around 200 people has been found more than 80 miles south of Gran Canaria by a Spanish Maritime Rescue Service plane. The boat has the same characteristics as one of the boats reported missing.
In the pictures, a multi-coloured Senegalese pirogue, a kind of long canoe, can be seen. Spanish Maritime Rescue Service wrote on Twitter that a rescue boat was launched but will take two hours to reach the boat.
