A submarine in Lebanon has found the remains of at least seven people who died when their boat sank off the Lebanese coast earlier this year as they sought to migrate to Italy, the naval officials said.
The boat, carrying around 80 Lebanese, Syrians and Palestinians, went down more than five kilometers from the northern port of Tripoli.
Seven bodies were recovered the night of the incident including a child, while 48 survivors were pulled from the Mediterranean.
According to Lebanese Navy estimates, 30 people died.
