At least 17 people from Haiti have died in a boat accident off the coast of The Bahamas, the government has said.

Another 25 people were rescued, including one woman who was found alive inside the overturned boat, authorities said.


One child was among the dead. At least one person is still missing, with search missions underway.


Two people were taken into custody, both from The Bahamas, over the suspected human smuggling operation, officials said.
