A boat carrying around 60 migrants from Libya capsized in the central Mediterranean Sea on Sunday, approximately 45 nautical miles southeast of Malta (a small island nation south of Sicily and a key entry point for migrants crossing from North Africa to Europe). A nearby fishing vessel rescued 48 survivors, but Italian Coast Guard officials confirmed the recovery of at least 10 bodies, with search-and-rescue operations continuing into the night. The incident underscores the ongoing dangers faced by migrants attempting the perilous central Mediterranean crossing, one of the world's deadliest migration routes.
