Spanish coast guards rescue 57 migrants off Canary Islands

Fifty-seven sub-Saharan African men were picked up on Friday (September 22) by Spanish coast guards after they were found in a wooden boat in the Atlantic Ocean nine miles from the island of Gran Canaria, Spanish authorities said.

The Red Cross provided them with medical assistance and said four people were treated at the dock, but none required hospitalization.
