100 migrants die off Libyan coast

More than 100 migrants died in a shipwreck off the Libyan coastline earlier this month, an aid agency says, reports BBC.
Two rubber boats set off on September 01 but one of the vessels deflated and sank, Medecins Sans Frontieres (MSF) says.
The 276 survivors were eventually taken to the Libyan port city of Khoms, around 100 km (62 miles) to the south-east of the capital Tripoli.
MSF says the group is now being held in "arbitrary detention".
The survivors, including pregnant women, children and infants, have been treated by MSF for pneumonia or burns from leaked fuel.
It appears to be the largest migrant death toll in the Mediterranean in several months.
