A cargo ship has rescued at least 55 migrants from Libyan waters after their boat capsized, but several bodies were spotted in the sea and up to 30 people might be missing.

Italian Coastguard officials said the dinghy used a satellite phone to request help, and a Singapore-flagged merchant ship rushed to the scene but the migrants' boat capsized just before its arrival.
