اِنْقَلَبَ قَارِبٌ صَغِيرٌ قُرْبَ سَوَاحِلِ بِنْ قَرْدَانَ، جَنُوبَ شَرْقِ تُونِسَ، فِي نِهَايَةِ الأُسْبُوعِ. وَكَانَ عَلَى مَتْنِهِ خَمْسَةَ عَشَرَ شَخْصًا تُونِسِيًّا يُرِيدُونَ الذَّهَابَ إِلَى إِيطَالِيَا. وَقَالَ الْحَرَسُ الْوَطَنِيُّ إِنَّ الْقَارِبَ غَرِقَ بَعْدَ دُخُولِ الْمَاءِ إِلَيْهِ.
اِنْتَشَلَتْ فِرَقُ الْإِنْقَاذِ جُثَثَ أَحَدَ عَشَرَ شَخْصًا، وَأَنْقَذَتْ سَفِينَةٌ تِجَارِيَّةٌ شَخْصًا وَاحِدًا. وَظَلَّ ثَلَاثَةُ أَشْخَاصٍ مَفْقُودِينَ، وَاسْتَمَرَّ الْبَحْثُ عَنْهُمْ بِمُسَاعَدَةِ مَرَاكِبَ وَمِرْوَحِيَّاتٍ. وَعَثَرَتْ سَفِينَةٌ تِجَارِيَّةٌ عَلَى النَّاجِي بَعْدَ نَحْوِ ثَمَانٍ وَأَرْبَعِينَ سَاعَةً فِي الْبَحْرِ. وَكَانَ أَرْبَعَةَ عَشَرَ رَاكِبًا مِنْ بِنْ قَرْدَانَ، وَكَانَ رَاكِبٌ وَاحِدٌ مِنْ جَرْجِيسَ.

Search Continues for Three Missing People Near Ben Gardane
A small boat capsized near the coast of Ben Gardane, in southeastern Tunisia, at the weekend. Fifteen Tunisian people were on board and wanted to go to Italy. The National Guard said that the boat sank after water entered it.
Rescue teams recovered the bodies of eleven people, and a commercial ship rescued one person. Three people remained missing, and the search for them continued with boats and helicopters. A commercial ship found the survivor after about forty-eight hours at sea. Fourteen passengers were from Ben Gardane, and one passenger was from Zarzis.
