Rescue teams out in force on Wednesday in the Mediterranean as they tried to save some 88 people, including children and babies, who have been shipwrecked on a flimsy boat that gave way.

The Open arms vessel said it recovered five bodies and that the rickety boat collapsed and tipped them into the sea.

The Spanish NGO managed to distribute waistcoats and masks in the moments before the ground sank.

It is the second migrant boat that the organisation's vessel has rescued in less than 24 hours.

Several miles away it was a similar situation but on a different boat. Some 13 people drowned off the Libyan coast while it managed to save 85 who were adrift and in danger of sinking in international waters.

Their boat was badly damaged, with water and gasoline spilled inside. 

The NGO has criticised the fact that the countries of the Mediterranean have abandoned these people and have not moved government relief teams. 

Since the start of the year, more than 575 migrants have died while trying to reach Europe, according to the UN's Migration body the IOM.

The rescue ship set sail from the port of Barcelona (northeast Spain) on November 4 bound for the central Mediterranean, where in recent days it was waiting to receive a request for help.

Tanzania's opposition leader and 2020 presidential candidate, Tundu Lissu has left the country for Brussels.

Lissu contested against incumbent president John Magufuli. He lost to him in what he described as an election held under corruption and voter intimidation.

Lissu had sought refuge in the German Embassy in Dar Es Salaam after multiple threats and fear for his life.

The opposition leader has been living with severe injuries since surviving an assasination attempt in 2017.

He had 12.8% of the electoral voteas against President Magufuli's 84%. Lissu has asked the international community not to recognize the election results.

Magufuli was sworn in for a second-five year term on Thursday November 5 in the Tanzanian capital. There was heavy p olice and army security presence ahead of the swearing-in ceremony.

Meanwhile, leaders of the East African nation's two main opposition parties, ACT Wazalendo and CHADEMA, who refuse to recognize Magufuli's win, have been charged with organizing an unlawful assembly.
