Migrants' bodies found in boat washed ashore St. Vincent and the Grenadines

 
The bodies of 11 people, believed to have been migrants, have been found inside a boat, washed onto the shores of a Caribbean island which forms parts of St. Vincent and the Grenadines.
 
The identities of those on board remain unclear, but several passports found at the scene suggest they were from Mali, a land-locked country in western Africa, more than 6,000 kilometres away. 
 
The boat was found grounded in Little Bay on Tuesday.
 
The discovery comes just months after a boat with the bodies of 13 people, some of whom also had Malian documents, was found washed ashore in St. Kitts and Nevis.
