A British-flagged sailboat carrying 22 tourists capsized off the coast of Palermo, Italy, near Sicily. Seven people are reported missing, including citizens from the UK, France, Ireland, New Zealand, and Sri Lanka. The incident occurred at sunrise as the 50-meter vessel encountered rough seas and a hurricane. Italian authorities have rescued 15 people, including a child, while divers from the fire department continue searching the waters around the sunken ship, which lies half a mile offshore at a depth of approximately 50 meters.
