(BSS/AFP) - At least eight migrants drowned after a boat carrying them capsized off the Turkish coast in the Aegean Sea, a local governor's office said on Friday.

The victims' nationalities were not yet known. Officials said two people were rescued by the Turkish coast guard and another two managed to make it out of the water on their own.
