The death toll in the shipwreck off
Tunisia rose to at least 29 on Sunday afternoon after the
Tunisian coast guard recovered 10 more bodies from the wreckage
of the boat that sunk off the coast of Mahdia, according to Al
Jazeera citing Houssem Jebabli of the Tunisian National Guard.
Earlier on Sunday the Tunisian Forum for Social and Economic
Rights (Ftdes) told Reuters at least 19 people had died and 5
survived.
The boat was heading to Italy.
