At least 25 people died and some 190 are missing after a migrant boat capsized off the coast Mauritania.

At least 300 people, mostly from Senegal and Gambia, were on board when their boat capsized.

Among the survivors, 10 people were urgently referred to hospitals for medical care, and four unaccompanied and separated children were identified.

The International Organisation for Migration said around 300 people had boarded a wooden boat in Gambia and spent seven days at sea before the boat capsized.
