Boats Sinks off of Libyan Coast, Hundreds Dead


Saturday, September 15, a boat carrying 250 African migrants to Europe sunk off the coast of Libya. Many have died and only 39 people have been saved so far.  Many migrants have been leaving Libya by boat on  their way to Egypt for many years now. The Italian government says that more than 100,000 people have reached their shores so far in 2014. More than 100 migrants died in a similar accident in August.
