Migrant boat crashes off coast of Italy, killing at least 43 people

southern Italy at dawn Sunday, the Italian Coast Guard said."As of now, 80 persons were recovered alive — some of whom succeeded in reaching the shore after the shipwreck — and 43 bodies were found along the shore," the Coast Guard statement said shortly before noon.Italian Premier Giorgia Meloni said that the migrants were crowded into a 20-meter (66-foot) -long boat in "adverse weather conditions." In a statement released by her office, she expressed "her deep sorrow for the many human lives torn away by human traffickers.""It's inhumane to exchange the live of men, women and children for the ‘price’ of a ticket paid by them in the false prospect for a safe voyage," said Meloni, a far-right-wing leader whose governing allies includes the anti-migrant League party.She vowed to use her leadership to press for crackdowns on departures arranged by human smugglers and to press fellow European Union leaders to help Italy in her quest.A chunk of the boat, along with piles of splintered wood, littered the beach at Steccato di Cutro, part of Calabria's coastline along the Ionian sea. Some of the survivors tried to keep warm, wrapped in what appeared to be colorful blankets or sheets.Credit: Italian Red Cross via Storyful A helicopter and motorboats were deployed in search efforts, including vessels from state firefighters, border police and the coast guard.A Coast Guard motorboat rescued two men suffering from hypothermia and recovered the body of a boy in the rough seas, it said in a statement.

Quaker community in Haddonfield decorate with images of peace after symbols of hate painted on trees

HADDONFIELD, N.J. - Images of hate were painted on trees in Haddonfield over the weekend. The Quakers are long known as pacifists but they said they can't stay silent after swastikas were painted on trees in the South Jersey town. Police say vandals painted two of the hateful symbols on trees at the entrance to the Haddonfield Friends Cemetery, which sits between the Quaker Meeting House and the Friends School. Third-grader Sophia Selina saw the hateful symbols and spoke to FOX 29's JoAnn Pileggi. ‘It was horrible," she said. "I couldn’t believe my eyes and I don't know why anyone would do it." Residents wonder if the incident was random or a deliberate act. The Department of Public Works covered the hateful symbols with paint and police are investigating. Members of the Friends Meeting House decorated the fence and placed signs of love and peace where the hateful symbols were covered. They hope to spread the message that love and peace will prevail over hate. Haddonfield Mayor Colleen Bianco Bezich released a statement on the incident, saying, "I am disgusted by the swastikas and grateful to our Haddonfield Police Department and Department of Public Works for responding, reporting, and working to clean up these signs.
