89 sub-Saharan African migrants have been rescued after
drifting in a boat for five days before they were found afloat off the
western port of Zawiyah, the LANA reported on Saturday.
Authorities were alerted by a fisherman of the stray boat, which five bodies were dumped into the oceans from due to deaths onboard, naval officer Colonel Ayub Omar Gacem said.
“Many of them were taken to hospital when they were brought to shore, the rest were provided with food and medicine on the spot,” Ayoub was quoted as saying.
The migrants told their rescuers that five people had died and they had disposed of their bodies at sea.
