The Italian coastguard has said more than 4,200 migrants trying to reach Europe have been rescued from boats in the Mediterranean in the past 24 hours.
In some of the most intense Mediterranean migrant traffic of the year, a total of 4,243 people were saved from fishing boats and rubber dinghies in 22 operations involving ships from Italy, Ireland, Germany, Belgium and Britain.
The announcement on Saturday came a day after 17 bodies were found on one of the boats off Libya. Last month, about 800 migrants drowned off Libya when their 20m fishing boat capsized and sank.
