ROME (Reuters) - A migrant boat capsized in the Mediterranean on Thursday, an Italian coastguard spokesman said, and the number of possible dead is unknown while 88 have been rescued from what was probably a wooden fishing vessel.
It is the second shipwreck in two days, after five were confirmed to have died when a large fishing boat flipped over in the sea on Wednesday.
