A migrant boat carrying dozens of people capsizes off the Libyan coast, according to a monitoring group. The incident occurs in the Mediterranean Sea off eastern Libya on June 12, the group says. In a report issued Friday, the Abreen group, which monitors migrant activity in eastern Libya, says 51 migrants are dead or missing as a result of the wreck. It also reports that 10 people survive. The same account says 11 bodies were recovered after the incident, indicating authorities and responders retrieve some of the victims while others remain unaccounted for. The reports characterize the trip as one intended to reach European shores. No details are provided across the sources about the vessel’s condition, the number of people on board beyond “dozens,” or the circumstances leading to the capsizing. The figures cited are based on the monitoring group’s assessment rather than on an official government death toll released in the summaries provided.
