Two adults and three children died and 15 people went missing when a boat sank off the French overseas territory of Mayotte, the government said on Sunday.
The fishing boat was carrying 43 people from the nearby independent nation of the Comoros, the overseas ministry said in a statement.
"The provisional toll is 19 people survived, 15 were missing and five bodies were found, including those of three children," it said.
One of the children was a baby.
