(Reuters) -Forty-five migrants have died after two ships wrecked sank off the coast of the East African nation of Djibouti with many still missing, a spokesperson for the United Nations migration agency said on Tuesday.

The boats left Yemen with 310 people and so far, 32 survivors were rescued, the International Organization for Migration said in a post on X, adding that it is supporting state emergency services in search and rescue operations.
