Hundreds of migrants are saved from drowning in the Canary Islands

At least 227 migrants were rescued near Spain's Canary Islands on Thursday, officials said, a day after more than 30 migrants were reported dead.

According to the Coast Guard, the migrants were traveling by boat near the islands of Lanzarote and Gran Canaria in the Atlantic.

Some of them were taken to the hospital for treatment and are out of danger.

On Wednesday, two organizations said more than 30 migrants may have drowned after their rafts capsized off Gran Canaria.

Spanish authorities said rescuers found the bodies of a minor and a man and rescued 24 other people.
