Migrants die as boat capsizes

Spanish coastguards have found the corpses of 21 immigrants, some of them children, off the coast of Lanzarote in the Atlantic after their boat sank. Six survivors were plucked to safety after their vessel capsized in the waters off the most northerly of the Canary Island chain.
