MADAGASCAR: The death toll after two motorboats carrying refugees from Somalia capsized in the Indian Ocean near Madagascar has risen to 25, authorities said today.

Another 48 people were rescued on Sunday from waters near the island of Nosy Be off northern Madagascar, said Jean-Edmond Randrianantenaina, the head of Madagascar’s Maritime Ports Agency.

Somali authorities said on Sunday that they believed 24 people had been killed. It was not clear what caused the boats to capsize.
