ROME — Italian border police rescued five African migrants adrift for days in a dinghy off the tiny Sicilian island of Lampedusa on Thursday. Survivors said up to 75 others died at sea.

The survivors — four men and one woman, believed to be Eritreans — told rescuers they had set sail three weeks ago from Libya. The boat’s motor had run out of fuel.
