Rome: Four people died and nearly 180 are missing after Saturday's migrant ship capsize in the Mediterranean, the UN refugee agency and the International Organization for Migration said.

The figures were based on the testimony of four rescued passengers who arrived in the southern Italian port of Trapani, they said Tuesday.
