At least 55 people are believed to have drowned after a boat capsized off the coast of Somalia, the UN refugee agency says.
The UNHCR said the overcrowded boat ran into trouble soon after it left the port of Bosasso in north-east Somalia.
The boat - believed to be carrying Somalis and Ethiopians - had been on its way to Yemen.
The UN said it is the biggest loss of life in the Gulf of Aden since February 2011 when 57 Somali migrants drowned.
"Twenty-three bodies have been recovered. The 32 remaining passengers are presumed to have drowned," the UNHCR said.
