ITALY-IMMIGRATION-REFUGEE-ACCIDENT

A picture shows bodies of victims of the ship of immigrants that sank on October 3, 2013 in the Lampedusa harbour on October 6, 2013. Divers in Italy recovered dozens more bodies today after a shipwreck in which more than 300 African refugees are feared to have died, as a government minister called for an easing of immigration rules. Divers working at a depth of some 50 metres (164 feet) described nightmarish scenes under water: bodies trapped in the wreckage, locked in a final embrace or lying on the seabed covered in sand.
