Refugee children fleeing the war in Syria wait at the port in the Cypriot southern port city of Larnaca on September 6, 2015 a few hours after they were rescued as their boat ran into trouble overnight off the Mediterranean island. The 114 people, including 54 women and children, had been aboard a small fishing boat about 40 nautical miles from the southern Cypriot port of Larnaca at the time they struck trouble, said a source in the island's Joint Rescue Coordination Centre. The boat was mainly carrying Syrian refugees, but also some Lebanese and Palestinians from Syria. AFP PHOTO / IAKOVOS HATZISTAVROU (Photo credit should read IAKOVOS HATZISTAVROU/AFP/Getty Images)

LANARCA, Chypre - Les autorités chypriotes ont annoncé que 114 migrants vraisemblablement d'origine syrienne avaient été secourus alors que le bateau de pêche sur lequel ils se trouvaient était en "détresse".

L'embarcation naviguait à environ 75 kilomètres de la côte sud de l'île de Chypre.

Les migrants secourus, dont 35 enfants, sont en bonne santé. Ils ont été transportés dans la ville portuaire de Lanarca.

La police a indiqué que trois hommes, dont le capitaine du bateau, ont été arrêtés. Elle n'a pas précisé s'ils étaient des "passeurs".
