An Italian newspaper La Repubblica has released a video shot by rescue divers after one of the biggest migrant tragedies off the southern Italian island of Lampedusa in October last year.The video was released just days after at least 17 migrants died when the boat carrying them sank at sea between Sicily and Libya and another sank off the Libyan coast killing at least 40 people. The video of the October sinking shows rescue divers inspecting the wreck which lies on the seabed near Lampedusa shore. Several bodies can be seen trapped inside the boat. The boat, carrying Eritrean, Somalian and Ghanaian migrants caught fire and capsized on October 3, 2013.
