Italy's coastguard said Friday it had found another 14 bodies after a migrant shipwreck off the southern coast earlier this week, taking the confirmed death toll to 34.

Authorities said on Monday that more than 60 people had been reported missing after the sailing boat sank off the coast of Calabria, with 11 people rescued.

The coastguard said air and sea searches continued for the missing.
