The vessel went down around 3 a.m. on Friday, 3 miles (5 km) off Tajoura, just east of Tripoli, because it was overloaded and taking on water, Tripoli naval forces spokesman Ayoub Qassem told Reuters. "Our coastguards carried out a search operation in that area off Tajoura in attempting to find the missing ones but no one was found." Last month, the bodies of 74 migrants were found washed up on a beach in western Libya after the engine of their vessel was stolen.
