November 2016 Libya migrant shipwrecks
Maritime incidents in Libya
On November 3, 2016, around 240 people were killed in two migrant boat capsizing incidents off the coast of Libya. Twenty-nine people survived the first wreck, with about 120 deaths reported. Only two people survived the second wreck, and again around 120 deaths were reported.[1] Another one hundred people are believed to have drowned off the coast when their boat sank after they were abandoned off Libya without a motor on 17 November. Twenty-seven survivors have been transported to Italy. An estimated 4,700 people have died trying to cross the Mediterranean Sea in 2016.[2]
