A fishing boat capsized on Sunday morning off the coast of Mohammedia, causing the death of one fisherman and the disappearance of another, we learn from the Civil Protection.

The victim passed away just after being admitted to the My Abdellah hospital in Mohammedia, the same source indicates, adding that the boat, a sardine boat, capsized due to a mechanical problem with the engine, which occurred at a time when the sea was particularly rough.
