Cypriot authorities rescued 60 migrants in an overnight operation after their boat got into difficulty 15 nautical miles off the Mediterranean island's southeast coast, officials said Tuesday."Around 8:00 pm (1700 GMT) on Monday, August 14, the Centre received information about a boat with migrants in danger, which was sailing 15 nautical miles east of Cape Greco," the statement said.
The toadfish is a group of some 80 species of fish, most of which are in the waters off North and South America. Here in New England, we have oyster toadfish.
Nine suspected people smugglers who were among the survivors of one of the Mediterranean’s most deadly migrant boat disasters have been arrested by the Greek authorities.
There were no survivors after a fishing vessel carrying 39 crew members from China, Indonesia and the Philippines capsized last week in the Indian Ocean,
