United Nations - Survivors of the latest shipwreck in the Mediterranean arrived in Palermo, Sicily. The fishing boat they were on was thought to be carrying 600 people when it set off from Libya. After running into technical problems the boat broke down and water started coming in. When people started jumping off the boat, it capsized, taking down with it many of the people on board. Only 367 survivors were brought to Sicily in Italy.
