> A boat carrying 305 people from Djibouti toward Yemen capsized off northern Djibouti, killing at least 139 people, including 15 children. At least 84 remain missing and more than 80 survived; the International Organization for Migration said the boat sank mainly because it was overcrowded. All survivors were Ethiopian nationals.
