28 october: a boat of palestinian refugees breaks into pieces before reaching Italian coast

Seen in Italian news -

"Un barcone carico di palestinesi si spezza davanti a Roccella JonicaSalvi in 110, 25 i feriti. Erano partiti dall'Egitto in 170"

my translation: "A boat of palestinian refugees breaks into pieces before reaching Roccella Jonica (Italy). Out of 135 people, 25 are injured. There were 170 refugees when the boat left from Egypt."

It is the first time I hear this happening in the news. I mean since I started this blog. The news item doesn't say where they originally came from (Gaza, as the boat left from Egypt?) but it clearly shows desparation.
