Rescuers scouring the white-capped waters off the Dominican Republic’s coast have found 17 bodies and 13 survivors from a boat overloaded with migrants that capsized almost two days ago, officials said.
The boat carrying about 70 migrants from the Dominican Republic to the U.S. territory of Puerto Rico capsized before dawn on Saturday morning and rescuers said hopes were fading for finding more survivors as search efforts were suspended because of darkness late on Sunday.
