A boat found adrift off the coast of one of the Canary Islands with the corpses of twenty-four migrants on board arrived on the island of Tenerife on Wednesday April 28, official sources said.
A Spanish rescue ship towed the boat into the port of Los Cristianos. The maritime rescue services which had, at first, reported a toll of seventeen dead, after counting made once the boat arrived in port, revealed a toll of twenty-four dead, including two minors. .
