A Spanish
aid organization said Friday that it feared hundreds of migrants may
have died off Libya’s coast, while Turkish media reported that 11
migrants died after a boat sank in the Aegean.
Concerns
about the migrants near Libya rose after Spain’s Proactiva Open
Arms group found five bodies near two capsized boats on Thursday.
Proactiva
spokeswoman Laura Lanuza said German aid organization Jugend Rettet
found a sixth body in the area Friday. Meanwhile, the search for a
third vessel reported missing in the area has so far proved futile.
Lanuza said the boats were found Thursday morning, north of the
Libyan town of Sabratha.
