At least 366 people died in the October 3, 2013, accident, provoking international outrage and prompting Italy to launch Mare Nostrum, a search-and-rescue mission designed to prevent more tragedies at sea.

45 farandverkamenn og flóttafólk fórust undan ströndum Líbíu á mánudag.

Flóttamannahjálp Sameinuðu þjóðanna greinir frá þessu og segir þetta versta sjóslys ársins á þessum slóðum.

Meðal þeirra látnu eru fimm börn. Sjómenn björguðu 37 af sama skipi en vél þess sprakk þegar það var skammt undan hafnarborginni Zwara.
