More than two dozen killed in vessel that sank off the coast of Yemen
A VESSEL carrying migrants sank off the coast of Yemen, leaving more than two dozen people dead or missing, the United Nations migration agency said today.
The tragedy is the latest in a string of shipwrecks that have left scores dead.
The vessel was carrying 25 Ethiopian migrants and the boat captain and his assistant, both Yemeni, when it capsized last Tuesday off the province of Taiz, the International Organisation for Migration (IOM) said in a statement.
